  • Bio

    ........ Refreshing in their raw musicianship, Buick Six could well have been born in another era, an era smack-bang in between the high-energy rock scene of late 60s Detroit and the hazy days of Led Zeppelin’s rule, with a visit to early 90s You Am I thrown in for Australian taste. .. Unabashed in their teeth-gritting urgency, the trio play classic guitar-driven rock with just enough dirt under their nails to be garage, though not so cool-for-school to snub their blues and roots influences which are worn proudly on the sleeves of their sweat-drenched t-shirts. Invading the space right through to the lungs, an unrelenting bottom-end signals each shift in pace with industrial-like, precision timing. It is this sound that has earned them a stack of support slots with names such as ..You Am I, Tame Impala, Washington, British India, Die! Die! Die!, Kisschasy, Sugar Army, The Silents, The Fumes and Hungry Kids of Hungary. .. Buick Six have recently made their first interstate in-roads, sharing with southerners what Queensland audiences have known for some time: Buick Six will break you down and wear you out. And just as you are led to believe that there are no more peaks to be reached and all efforts have surely been spent, Buick Six will drag you kicking to front and centre with the next furious wall of sound... and you will willingly let it happen all over again .. .. .."It's a neat balancing act achieved by few; that there's a brain there, but they're not afraid to sweat either. Thumpin' good.".... ..Ross Clelland, Drum .. .. .."Bring it on - you guys have got it goin on - great vocals and band freakin rocks out top work." .... ..'Changes' 4/5 - Rosie Beaton, triple j.. .. ..“Buick Six are defiantly a band to watch in 2010.” .... ....www.thescene.com.au .... .. .."Garage rock at its dirty, window shaking best.".... ....www.lifemusicmedia.com.... .. .."Buick Six have to be one of the most professional outfits around. With their rock solid wall of guitars sound, pounding drums and walloping bass included, the lads whip through a relentless set of frenzied rock that positively oozes confidence and credibility.".... ..Time Off.. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
