Music:Member Since: 10/25/2005Band Members: Influences: whats playing on the boomrux?; BOTCH, AT THE DRIVE IN, REFUSED, THE SOUND OF ANIMALS FIGHTING, LIGHTNING BOLT, DAFT PUNK, JAMES BROWN, GLASSJAW, SIGUR ROS, A WILHELM SCREAM, MEET ME IN ST.LOUIS, CHAMPION, DEFTONES, THE BLED, THIS CITY, ALEXISONFIRE, RAY CHARLES, JUSTICE, NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL, TELLISON, THE LOCUST, THRICE, BLOOD BROTHERS, RESONATE, HAEMOSTATIC PICNIC RACES, BLINK 182, RXBANDITS, METALLICA, BRAND NEW, TEST ICICLES, CANCER BATS...that's what's playing on the boomrux! Sounds Like: "They’re the cast of The Mighty Boosh trying to cause an arguement between Idlewild and The Mars Volta and then pushing them both down the stairs. By Christ, it’s one gloriously deranged cacophony." - Kerrang! "Take note of the name Rig Up Explosive. If there’s any justice they’ll be massive by the Summer. The nattily-attired five piece somehow manage to hit influences from Refused to Jesus Lizard to At The Drive In to Tellison to The Get Up Kids at the same time, all the while instilling their debut EP with a strong identity of their very own." - Big Cheese "pissing on most mainstream indie from a great height by blending pop sensibilities with heavy experimental leanings. These include anthemic Incubus choruses, football chants, beautiful Brand New melodies, and wonderful jazzy passages. More please!" - Rock Sound "It doesn’t really sound like too many other bands around right now - it fuses really intracite melodies with some tight, twisting guitar riffs... Rig Up Explosive are a very bright and intelligent band determined to do things a little differently and they deserve a lot of credit for not following trends. Well worth your time and money, check them out now." - Punktastic.com "Part indie, part punk, part rock but with a vital quantity of pop catchiness, Rig Up Explosive burst into your life and instantly become a vice that will be hard to resist." - roomthirteen.com "A missile making a jazzy, ska-punk-rock-core crackle and pop instead of that cartoon whine, but a rocket-powered super-smart thing nonetheless. Further listens and a few deep breaths will reveal subtle melodies and a myriad of hooks, most as intriguing as they are puzzling, and a memorable power that’ll have licks like ‘Hats Off To Leonard’ rolling around your brain for days. Their artful genre-dodging is bound to make a giant and genuine impact. Ace." - New Noise Record Label: Small Town Records Type of Label: Indie |
