Norwich Droners Transept Get RAVE Reviews Nationally

Artrocker - 4****
“Clocking in at just under 45 minutes, “TRSPT001” is stunning piece of progressive space-rock melancholia. This Norwich trio have constructed a record which contains both film score textures and orchestral drama.” 

Word - pick of the month - “The tracks are leisurely eight-minute affairs. It is subtle, stately and it gets under your skin” 

Mojo - 4**** - “Folk-drone prog-noise from Norfolk. The music shifts from electronic whispers to folk melodies to screeching distrortion.”

Uncut - 3*** - “Heroically defying contemporary rock fashion with an Arts Council grant and an underground lab full of noise weapons. ..centrepiece epic “Leopard Slug Love Song” is both magnificently pompous and oddly moving.”

So, Who Are The Brownies?

Noisy four-piece releasing through NRONE Records. Drummer Mike is currently also playing for Leeds-based Dinosaur Pile-Up. Previously a five-piece, they now promise a ‘heavier change in sound, designed to rip ones genitals from ones body like an industrial sized magnet.’

Tremendous.

4 Piece Alternative Rock Band, who’s sound is a complex as it is catchy. Listing their influences as: The Mars Volta, Radiohead, The Smiths, Pixies and Sonic Youth, gives you some idea. Their Mini-Album/EP/Album/Whatever is for sale on iTunes now so have a listen.
