The Beatific Visions

The Beatific Visions

Artist: Brakes
Producer: Stuart Sikes, Brakesbrakesbrakes

Rough Trade Records (UK) | January 1, 2009 | Compact Disc

Composer: Brakesbrakesbrakes.
Brakes: Eamon Hamilton (acoustic guitar); Marc Beatty, Alex White (background vocals); Thomas White.
Personnel: Kevin Teel (lap steel guitar); Anna McInnery (violin); Abi Fry (viola); Rob Lewis (cello); Phil Sumner (cornet); David Briggs (piano).
On their second full-length album, THE BEATIFIC VISIONS, the Brighton, England-based ensemble Brakes (not too be confused with the similarly named American band) follow up their punchy debut, GIVE BLOOD, with more fierce, restless rock tunes. Fronted by former British Sea Power member Eamon Hamilton and featuring Electric Soft Parade's White brothers, the group excels at ragged, punk-influenced numbers, as best exemplified by the spiky "Cease and Desist."

From the Critics

Q (p.133) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] positively unhinged record....It effectively communicates a sense of bedlam."
Alternative Press (p.148) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[They] are still experts at crafting short, tart, spiky post-punk songs similar in style and humor to Art Brut..."
