BROTHER’s 10th indie release, Pax Romana MMV is now available.  Includes new music, remixes, footage from the 'making of' and lyrics poetry book style.

“It was great to be back in the studio with Dalbo. It’s the first time since ‘Your Backyard’ in ’98.” Angus said. Dalbo describes it as ‘a great pleasure’ to be back in the studio with Hamish, Angus, and his old friend, producer Guy Erez.

How does the Aussie trio describe their new CD? “It’s got a Celtic, middle-eastern, mantra, droney, didg, groove, tribal, vocals, and guitars kind of vibe. We explore new territory here and at same time make a definite return to our roots.”

“Three words. Fat, deep, sensual' – Hamish. And for Dalbo? "Pax Romana is evocative and reflects the journey of life in all of its tensions and joys.’

Knowing their fans like to be part of the band’s musical journey, BROTHER released an advance pressing of the CD in June. “It was already shaping up to be a real journey CD.” says Hamish. “Our aim was a continuous experience, an endless flow until the end.”

BROTHER then went back into the studio and made it even better. “We remixed the music, added another track, added video footage from ‘the making of’, and included the lyrics poetry book style.” The enhanced CD is a first for the band. “We’ve been heading toward this a long time. Yes, we’re excited.”

the buzz on pax ...

'I just received the song...what a beauty. You guys and your songs are such a blessing to this earth, not to mention my life. If life could only be as lovely and insightful as your music. If only we could all treat each other with the same care you give each note of music and each lyric you share with us. If 9/11/01 is what is wrong with this world then Oh What a Lovely War and you lovely 'soul-diers' (I made that word up just for you guys) are what's right and what's possible if we all just demand peace ...and settle for nothing less!  I love you guys and so appreciate your talent, spirit and commitment to that which is possible' ... Laura B., USA

‘Unbelievable! This might be your best work yet.  All the songs are soulful and honest. The work is so unabashedly purposeful about your intent and breathtaking in scope.  I've listened to all three about 15 times or so and I'm still finding new things.’
Laura, Los Angeles, CA

'
Thank you, Brother, for your peace offering re 9/11.  Your song and lyrics are wonderful.  I oppose all violence and hope that one day we can all live in peace.  Your song voices that sentiment perfectly.' Kim

I remember the Mt. Hope show where some people got up and left when the guys did "Oh What a Lovely War". I thought it was a shame that they did not understand the message. Well, I understand ... and I think it is brilliant. Stephanie, USA
