The Flash Express

about

Brian Waters possesses everything you could ever want from a rock n roll frontman: unshakeable self-belief bordering on arrogance, diverse taste (this LA trio cover Grandmaster Flashs The Message in a swampabilly style here, while Sneak Around is a Suicide co-write) and an on-stage habit of copping the moves of James Brown and Mick Jagger while hunched over his Telecaster peeling off dirty swamp wah-licks. Comparisons with Jon Spencer have been made, but only because its shorter than reeling off a list of references that includes the goggle-eyed pop smarts of Outkasts Andre 3000, the beat psycho of The Zombies and the pumping proto-garage of The Gories and The Stooges. Here is an instant record collection and sweat-drenched history lesson, and it fully deserves the title theyve given it. --Gillian Nash[LOGO Magazine] The Flash Express @ myspace User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
