The year 2008, marked the beginning of ‘Broken Links’. A 3-piece alternative act from the outskirts of Southampton, diving into the lyrical and musical depths of free association, taking you on an emotional rollercoaster of despair to complete arousal.
Influenced by the under-currents of post-punk, and then boxing it up into an old stone box made of pure hard space rock and sin. A band you simply cannot ignore.
‘Broken Links’ have supported signed acts 'British Sea Power', 'The Boxer Rebellion', ‘My Vitriol’, ‘Official Secrets Act’, ‘Fighting with Wire’, and ‘The Cinematics’, picking up some die-hard fans along the way. They have taken their live show to well established venues such as The Purple Turtle (Camden), Powers (Kilburn), Boston Music Rooms (Tufnell Park), The Joiners (Southampton), iBar (Bournemouth), The Railway Inn (Winchester), and Lennons (Southampton), with full intention of leaving watchers mesmerised by the wall of sound they create. A sound certainly not expected of a three piece.
If the winners of We Ignite Records 2009 ‘Battle of the Bands’ first EP ‘Resisting Movement And The Almost Advisory’ is anything to go by, they cannot disappoint.
