"When you hear an unsigned band and by the middle of the song forget they’re unsigned you know it’s good. London-based foursome The Brent Flood is that band. Lyrically intelligent and musically brilliant, every track on their third self-published offering, The Autumn 2007 EP could be in the charts today" - Music-News.com
Somewhere in deepest, darkest Tooting this Anglo-Irish quartet is gathering momentum, living under one roof and sharing musical ideas in the basement like germs... After reaching the finals of the Nationwide O2 battle of the bands in late 2006 The Brent Flood appeared on Playmusic Magazine's cover-mount CD of the best UK unsigned music, were listed in Music-news.com’s Top 10 Unsigned Bands of 2007 and were victorious at the 2008 Indy Awards in the category of Best Indie.
“A brilliant example of engaging British song writing…Bursting with delicious melodies to chew over” - Playmusic Magazine
“This is not retro, this is something new, and this band could only exist now. Or maybe in the future.” - Bandman.co.uk
Hay guys, just wanted to let you know we're playing your frickin cd so much i think it's going to melt in my machine and slowly driving us insane. Each morning all week when i've woken up the 1st thing i've come out with is a lyric from one of your tunes. Monday was 'Skinny machines', tuesday was 'super happy' today was 'any other clothes', and it continues. So we resort to playing your tunes some more to try and get them out of our heads!!!! AWESOME tunes gents. I see big things for you guys. Catch you around.
Hey Guys! Royces Cuz here, I saw you on sunday. You guys are So so so awesome, and quite frankly annoyingly brilliant, Im waking up singing your tunes and then we have to listen to your cd a good few hundred times to get over it! If your not MASSIVE in the next couple of years I will be truly amazed, cant wait to see you again. x
