The Brandos - Honor Among Thieves - 1987

A must for indie-rock fans! The Brandos play with great verve on this strong set of compositions. "Gettysburg," an anti-war song that spans three generations of loss has both passion and purpose. Further on, they cover John Fogerty's "Walk On The Water" making it their own in the process. While often coming off like angry young men, "Come Home" shows a softer, more melancholy side of a band that can rock out with the best of them. It's a shame more hasn't been heard from them. -AMG

This is Dave Kincaid's band after he disbanded the Allies (Seattle power pop). He took the drummer with him and formed this band. Very talented songwriter and singer but they never caught the big break.
