Info for Take Control
The hyper-motivated Kent duo of Isaac Holman (vocals, drums) and Laurie Vincent (guitar) have followed a spectacular 2015 by recording another hit album in waiting, at Jackson Browne's studio in Santa Monica, California. 'Take Control', was produced by one of the legends of early hip hop and New York punk, Mike D from the Beastie Boys. 'Take Control' finds the young pair sharpening up their skills, both in songwriting and in execution and sounding heavier in places. Several tracks on the album were recorded on vintage equipment used by the Beastie Boys on their classic records, including 'STD's PhD's', 'Angelica' and 'Consume Or Be Consumed'. Recorded back home in London, 'Steer Clear' was a collaboration with another hero, Baxter Dury, who lent his distinctive vocals to a duet with Isaac.

Slaves
Raw U.K. punk duo Slaves was formed in 2013 in leafy Maidstone, Kent by guitarist Laurie Vincent and drummer Isaac Holman, both in their early twenties at the time. After meeting Vincent on the gig circuit, Holman briefly became part of his band Bareface before the two decided to split from the band and go in a new direction. With just one electric guitar and a stripped-down drum setup consisting of just two cymbals, a snare drum, and a floor tom (which Holman played standing up), the pair shared vocal duties, forging a harsh, vicious, cathartic, and uniquely British sound inspired by, among others, Crass, Refused, and Joy Division, and somewhat comparable to the more modern acts Gallows and Iceage. Interest in the duo built exponentially, thanks to their willingness to play as many gigs as humanly possible. Taking to the stage looking like hipsters (or, as one early promoter put it, "like Chase & Status"), the band surprised and stunned audiences with their abrasive sonic assault and sweat-soaked gigs, which usually ended with one or both of them stripped to the waist and the crowd pogoing like crazy. Their 11-song, 21-minute-long debut album, Sugar Coated Bitter Truth, was released in 2013 and featured the 15-second-long fan favorite "Girl Fight." A new single, "Where's Your Car, Debbie?", followed early in 2014. (John D. Buchanan, ROVI)
