    Pure raw beef - can't listen to this album enough. Loved seeing these guys recently at Alex's and the Troubadour - they belt it out. It's funny, they tour with Diarrhea Planet which has 4 guitars and a bass, yet Jake has a larger guitar sound (a la Fu Manchu). Great, great stuff. Would love to one day see them with their label mates Heavy Cream, also from Nashville. The latterPure raw beef - can't listen to this album enough.

    While their DIY ethic is still firmly intact, they've started to evolve gracefully into pop craftsmen. A Brotherhood rock opera might still be a few years off, but a fast and furious album like We Are the Champions every couple of years should be more than enough to keep the fires blazing.

    Champions' appeal clearly isn't its originality, but its songwriting; on every track, JEFF The Brotherhood enters briskly, states its piece concisely, and gets the hell out before the rush wears off.

    The brothers have acid on the brain, stirring harmonized distortion and sitar buzz into the boogie. And they back up the balls of this album title: The Blue Cheer-with-Neu! surge of "Mellow Out" is fast bliss.
