About this item
Amazon.com
Recorded in the north of England in a cold garage by a batch of 20-year-olds before they'd ever played a lick live, Bring It On displays a remarkable maturity, quoting from a musical source that only folks twice their age are privy to. The insularity of the remote garage removes these lads from the territory of their bombastic Brit-rock peers, freeing them to seek inspiration beyond the shores of their isle. Strains of American groove rock (think Little Feat or Dr. John) run throughout: the opening track, "Get Miles," lopes along on a bourbon-infused jam and Ben Ottewell's deep, gravelly voice, and "78 Stone Wobble" sounds like a long-lost Doobie Brothers hit. But Gomez aren't mere revivalists. Their take on American boogie provides a stale genre with youthful verve. --Tod Nelson
Product Description
Bring It on poses a fundamental question: how can these young Englishmen make such diverse music, with such a direct emotional link to venerated American musicians ranging from Tom Waits to Tim Buckley, Pearl Jam to Dr. John, Beck to the Grateful Dead? Bring It on debuted on the U.K. charts at #26 in April. The 1st single, "78 Stone Wobble," debuted on the U.K. charts at #44. Press and consumers alike are spreading the word on Gomez, and the buzz is building here in the U.S. [Note: This product is an authorized CD-R and is manufactured on demand].
Review
...Bring It On is much more than a mere amalgam of blues, country, Tex-Mex and rock.... [T]his record couldn't have been made before acid house swept Britain ten years ago; Gomez lays down rhythmic patterns and beats that complement the rootsy influences rather than quash them. -- No Depression
...[I]t slowly grows into sonic shapes that are as dense and oddly beautiful as wild kudzu. -- Entertainment Weekly
