Any project involving Jackson Reid Briggs is worth checking out in my book. We’ve already covered his solo release and his full band release last year, and here’s his latest project. In Split System, Reid Briggs fronts a strong cast of characters from other cool bands like Stiff Richard, Speed Week, The Black Heart Death Cult and No Zu. Are you excited yet? Wait until you hear the four songs on their self-titled debut EP.
Split System’s brand of garagepunk absolutely rocks. It blows my mind that these songs were recorded remotely via e-mail. The amount of energy and aggression these dudes have injected in the recordings must have infuriated their neighbors. And it won’t be the last neighbors these Australians will drive crazy, because there is only one way to play this EP: LOUD!
