Sounds Like
What would have happened if THE KNACK had more than one hit
Anglophile Strut n roll, think THE SMALL FACES & THE FACES grooving wth THE KINKS and aftermath era ROLLING STONES
Three part harmonies and delicious hooks, it's like the UK verson of CHEAP TRICK
These guys clearly love TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS & THE RAMONES, it's all big hooks and heartbreak vocals.
The UK's hottest power pop band! In an ideal world, THE BREAKDOWNS would be Number 1 with a bullet!
Four rock n roll Royster Doysters, beamed down from Planet Power Pop are hear to shake n strut their way into your lives.
Their debut long player, simply titiled 'THE BREAKDOWNS' is out now on Rock Indiana Records.
"Gearing up for their debut album release via Spanish label Rock Indiana, these guys play hook laden rock n roll with soaring vocals and sharp, snappy melodies. Think Tom Petty and The Ramones, with a liberal sprinkling of Spectoresque magic and British invasion attitude.
Viva Los Breakdowns!"
Joe is the front man. He struts and pouts and swings his guitar as he belts out the songs with power and emotion.
Matt is the guitar hero. He sings some harmonies and plays effortless licks...
Adam plays bass guitar, completes the vocal trio and is a bundle of raw, nervous energy...
Owen keeps the beat and never misses it..
"Anglophile strut n roll meets transatlantic power pop, all packaged in a neat black n white 12" sleeve. Energetic front,an Joe Breakdown and his charges dish out hook after hook of classic, dirty pop wth soaring vocals and beautiful harmonies that you just don't hear in rock n roll any more."
