Title: Clash meet Tenpole Todor
Review: Ok. I saw them (Briggs) on their Fall tour with Street Dogs and Flogging Molly. All were great. So I bought this CD. I bought it even though I am an aging punk who had to question whether or not I could still hang when the Briggs unleashed their amps on us and nearly deafened me at the show. There was something there. A sound that was tight and had enough variation in hooks that it reminded me of something familiar. Several songs reminded me of the Clash. A couple of songs reminded me of Tenpole Tudor (I told you I'm aging!). And all that aside, I took them on their own terms and came away with the feeling that these guys stand on their own and I'll definitely buy their next. But next time I see them I hope they turn the volume down to 10.
