"THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD" get it right here right now thru INTERPUNK!
The fall of 2000 was a time of innocence. Clinton was President. The Twin Towers were still standing. And Bob Seger still had his dignity. Then the Briefs burst onto the scene like a neutron bomb with the audaciously titled "Hit After Hit" and the punk rock landscape was changed forever....
Seven years later they’re still poor and still weird but their fans are so much richer for the shitload of records they’ve put out along way. If you’re hungry for more history, BYO re-releasd “Hit After Hit” and “Off the Charts” so now you can listen to what you’ve been missing, but start with the new record: “Steal Yer Heart.” It’s got 12 tracks of pure punk rock pandemonium. If their last record, “Sex Objects” was full of political mischief, an antidote for these tumultuous times, “Steal yer Heart” is a dysfunctional love song, a reflection of the challenges that come with spending half your life on the road.
LA Weekly - "The finest punk-pop band in existence these days, this Seattle quartet makes mincemeat out of whatever goateed/ball-capped/Doc Marten'ed whiner brigade that's now littering altie-rock playlists simply by adhering to the good ol' "1977 and nothing but" formula. Their 2004 onslaught, Sex xObjects (BYO), is the rock & roll disc of the year, a return to the genius of their amazing debut, Hit After Hit - especially the eupeptic and idiotic anthems "Killed by Ants" and "Ephedrine," which are greater moments than 999, the Undertones or Sham 69 ever had back when this ear-wrench was actually fresh and new. The Ramones may have started this 30 years ago, but the Briefs are the only ones really keeping the spirit of numbskulled-yet-smart alive today." (Johnny Angel)
