Biography

In the 1990's musical landscape, Champaign-Urbana, Illinois' Braid carved a place for themselves that continues to resonate.

Armed with a much deserved reputation as a touring band, their dual guitar and vocal assault coupled with a math-rockesque rhythm section earned them a legion of fans and a popularity that continues to grow over a decade later.

4.0 out of 5 stars ..., April 7, 2007
This review is from: Age of Octeen (Audio CD)
Ahh the mid 90's midwest explosion. I could go on for days about some of those bands/albums that changed my life. "The age of octeen" seems to shine brightly through Braid's inconsistencies before and even after this album. Many of you may (and i'm sure you will) disagree, but with present album excluded, Braid were a hit and miss band for me. I'm not saying their other albums are throwaways, "frankie", "movie music", "Frame and canvas" etc..all have their moments, But "octeen" tops 'em all.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Of Braid, December 18, 2001
By 
Chris (Cocoa, FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Age of Octeen (Audio CD)
This is definetly Braid's best album. I love the lyrics, especially is "Divers." There is a lot of odd times and rhythem changes, along with excellent guitar work. I recommend this album to anyone who has already heard Braid; or just anyone wanting a really good album
