Release Notes:
Hailing from Dublin, The Brothers Movement formed in 2007 and in a
short span of time have shared billing with established rock acts
like The Jesus Mary Chain, MC5, Chemical Brothers and Sonic Youth.
Touted as the ôHard Working Class Heroes of 2008ö by Entertainment.ie,
The Brothers Movement cite influences ranging from the Beatles to My
Bloody Valentine, and their sound recallÆs early Dandy Warhols and A
Place To Bury Strangers. References to The Verve also abound due to
the bands powerfull, emotive, woozy indie -rock but The Brothers
Movement far from being copyists, are obviously hugely talented and
are ushering in a new era of Brit-pop, with RCRD LBL noting that the
band, ôis boldly stepping into Richard Ashcroft and Co.'s battered
trainers.ö
In early 2008 the band spent time recording their debut album in a
Philadelphia studio with the Cobbs (BRMC, Peasent, War on Drugs).
The Brothers Movement also showcased their talents at IMRO New
Sounds Stage at Oxegen, IrelandÆs largest music festival, as well as
the Popkomm Festival in Berlin. Following their opening slot on the
European leg of Black Rebel Motorcycle ClubÆs 2008 tour, the band
released their first EP ôBlindö in November 2008. The lead single,
also entitled ôBlindö received favorable press, with RCRDLBL.Com
featuring the track in its ôRCRD Selector Downloadö in March
2009.Spring 2009 proved to be an eventful month for The Brothers
Movement as they collected accolades left and right, including a write
up in the Future Sounds Column in Record of the Day (UK), calling
ôtheir brand of psychedelic ooze better than anyoneÆs.ö Their March
2009 set at South by Southwest garnered additional industry buzz, with
The Irish Times calling The Brothers Movement ôhugely impressive.ö In
June 2009, their epic single ôSisterö was featured on the Future
Sounds 33 compilation, garnering a very positive buzz from industry
tastemakers.
