Release Notes:
--------
Hailing from Grimsby, this rocking trio present their blinding fourth studio
album with the best track names known to man!

There is nothing I dislike about this album. Nothing. Whilst I can admit I
haven’t heard too much about this band in my musical career, I am somewhat
resentful of this. Where have I been?

“Control� is the bands fourth studio album, recorded live nonetheless, and it’s
completely flawless with respect to versatility, production, emotive power and
memorability. Touching on blues and jazz with a large dash of rock, this
collection of compositions have reserved my attention for the duration and it
has to be noted just how well and seamlessly these musicians play together.

Jason Barwick is unfortunately one of those versatile musicians you can easily
scorn through jealousy, with a potent toned voice and silk laced guitar skills
(and luscious locks!), making a performance look completely effortless. Bah!
But, in turn, bassist Tim Smith and drummer Kurtis Smith are not to be
overshadowed, as the combination of the three sparks all sorts of awesome! The
bass and drums are completely locked throughout the album, providing a solid
foundation to which Barwick’s lead guitar sprinkles on that extra-special magic
dust that’ll really get your ears and eyes to open to this rock trio.

There are no fillers in this album, in fact The Brew have really pulled out all
the stops with this one, and being notoriously energetic with their
performances, these tracks will easily have a stadium bouncing in unison. Yes,
there are some similarities to other artists here, but these days, what musician
can get away with being liked to another? I can hear traces of Pink Floyd, a
dusting of Santana, perhaps a bit of The Doors and The Who…..but it’s mostly The
Brew to be honest.

Favourite tracks on “Control� include album opener “Repeat� for a real taste
energetic riffage, “Eject� for the superb guitar solo, “Pause� for the classic
side of rock and “Stop� for the acoustic sound and Barwicks vocals.

The Brew should be proud to present this top class collection of songs. The
album can soothe the ear for many in a variety of situations, and I can’t urge
you to seek this band out enough.

“Control� combines the classic with classy, the gritty with smoothness, the
musicianship with passion and is an absolute stomper! Did I mention this was
recorded live? Woah.
