dRAWBACKS; dBs to their friends, started life on the London breaks scene in the late 90s. The Brothers R were either recording, in A&R meetings, or getting slick at 333 Old Street and Friction, bumping into the likes of Orbital, Freq Nasty, Rennie Pilgrem, Adam Freeland and Dave Tipper. D & TJ were signed to Bolshi/Big Life Recordings sometime during this purple-hazy period as Hijinx.

After a lengthy recovery spell at the Abbey, dBs decamped to their studio 'Controlled Environment' and dipped into the murky waters of synchronization (music-to-picture), pumping out a score of bloody remixes and EPs, and licensing music to anyone who could afford them and who didn't have a track record of killing people in the third world. Prime dBs cuts have graced the screen hundreds of times for the likes of Sony Pictures, 20th Century Fox, CBS, The Sopranos, CSI Miami, DC Comics and BMW to mention but a few.

October 2001 saw the brothers hook up with tech punk legends Pitchshifter (MCA) in New Jersey to lay the breaks on their PSI album with Grammy-nominated Fall Out Boy producer Machine. Following this righteous conflagration, Dan was asked to join Pitchshifter on guitar, shortly followed by TJ.

dRAWBACKS have received rave press in Ministry, DJ, Mixmag, Jockey Slut, Melody Maker, The Financial Times, The Tip Sheet, MP3, Kerrang, and were labeled ‘the future of British music’ by the late, great Factory Records boss Tony Wilson.

2008 sees dBs pushing their tech-glitch-electro-punk to even dizzier heights, with their second album Blacklight showcasing their unparalleled writing and production talents and gaining mass acclaim. dRAWBACKS will be rocking the stage near you soon. WORD!
