It is always difficult to be born. You know the chick does not find it easy to break his way out of the shell. Think back and ask yourself: Was the way all that difficult? Was it only difficult? Wasn’t it beautiful, too? Can you think of a more beautiful and easier way?
"Brainstorm is a high energy act that oscillates through an eclectic synthesis of styles. Skipping playfully across borders and genres, they summon old American spirituals, contemporary art-rock, Gypsy-punk, and desert blues, within a unique framework of poly-rhythms and dual vocal exchange. The result is hard to place, but undeniably engaging."
“Battling Giants,” the title track to the duo’s debut album, has been in constant rotation on my aging computer speakers of late, and it’s one of my favorite local tracks of the year. If Richard Thompson had grown up listening to Fugazi and then started a band with Animal the results would sound something like this. “Battling Giants” would make a great “first dance” song at a backyard wedding, which is appropriate enough ’cause I pretty much wanna marry it." ---Willamette Week
