About Me |

| FOR ALL BOOKINGS & MANAGEMENT ISSUES: Peter Saladino @ Polite Productions - pete@politeproductions.com Reviews: From Mess + Noise by J Vanderwerff Lets be clear here... This is an incredible record. From Blunt by Jason Watkins (8/10) a ferocious, doomy hardcore machine that takes obvious pointers from Breach and Isis but possesses a brutality of its own. Hell or High Water is tight and relentless From The Drum Media by Dan Stapleton Spectrum, Sydney 05/01/07 & Greenroom, Canberra 06/01/07 Their sets over the two nights were - for want of a better term - brutal, showcasing the brilliant doomy hardcore blend (think Breach, or even early Neurosis) that the band has spent years honing. In Canberra, the crowd got so worked up that Brisk's set was cut short (one audience member was ejected after pulling panels off the roof while crowd-surfing). The Sydney audience, while more restrained, was vocal in its enthusiasm, too. Brisk are quite simply one of the country's best bands, something both these sets made abundantly clear. From The Drum Media by Dan Stapleton While fans of bands like Isis and Botch will undoubtedly warm to Hell or High Water, the album also provides an intelligent alternative to anyone who feels like heavy music in Australia and worldwide is stagnating. From 5th Column by Greg Chamberlain Like Refused before them, Brisk make misery, aggression and confrontation sound like the stuff rousing parties are made of. They deliver these notions with such a sense of creativity and abandonment that all you can really think to do is dance in defiance. From BMA by Scott Adams (Album of the week) Flabbergastingly good stuff, this. Canberras own, Brisk, have delivered corker first time out, and LP of such staggering maturity youd think theyd been at it for years on the production circuit. The grasp of dynamics on show here is scintillating, as the band lurch from howling fury to tasteful restraint in the blink of an eye. more pictures of us and other hunks/cunts here You have been marked on my profile map!
