About Me |
|
| In its barebones mechanics, FA is a unit of 4 guys reared on pop and 90s rock music. The foursome is where it is now because of what they have initiated themselves: the writing, recording and releasing of a first EP called first Within Walking Distance and a whole number of live performances in clubs, bars and festivals throughout 2006 and 2007.The four members of friction athletic are the first to admit they are not from the rock and roll centres of Belgium. They were growing their seeds in the outskirts of Mechelen - a sound story they started writing on a warm summer night in june 2005.2007 kicked off nicely with "She Looks Great" winning the Demopoll on Studio Brussel and the debut album getting positive criticism in different media channels.RifRaf “We support Friction Athletic … The vitality of Arctic Monkeys … The power of Buffalo Tom”Demopoll (Studio Brussel): “Melodic songs in the tradition of the best singer/songwriters”Cutting Edge: “Sparkling indiepop recalling Bettie Serveert and Lemonheads”Bear rock / Music lounge: “Strong compositions”Panama Run: “Friction Athletic is heading for the right direction" Musiczine “Bringing comfort to those who are disappointed by REM’s latest album. [… ] Crackling electric and semi-acoustic guitars … catching melodies swept up by a beautiful voice which recalls both Michael Stipe and George Harrison. Songs bringing a certain freshness, just like Buffalo Tom." | |
