LA’s The Briggs are set to release their new effort, entitled Come All You Madmen, on June 17.
Founded by singing guitarists brothers Jason and
The dozen blistering tracks on Come All You Madmen were penned on acoustic guitar while out on the road with Dropkick Murphys. Teaming up with The Mighty Mighty Bosstones bassist
Creating a more aggressive, yet melodic and folky record, Come All You Madmen finds The Briggs at their very best.
“We figured there was no point in f**king around in making a boring, safe record,†Jason LaRocca declares, “so we turned it up a notch, pushed our own limits out of the comfort zone. We went more extreme.â€Â
Featuring guest appearances from punk rock icons Brian Baker (Bad Religion, Minor Threat), Ken Casey (Dropkick Murphys) and Dicky Barrett (The Mighty Mighty Bosstones), Come All You Madmen erupts with explosive, anthem-like working class street punk. From the soaring guitars on the fist-pumping “Charge Into The Sun†to the hometown shout out on “LA†and the marching beats of the Irish inspired sing-along “Mad Men†and the acoustic folk offering of “Oblivion,†The Briggs continue to establish themselves as one of punk’s most respectable and memorable acts.
