On the surface, HomBru sounds like a blend of Gordian Knot and Tool. They incorporate heavy, Stick-laden grooves and edgy guitar riffs with cerebral lyrics that occasionally break into growly Bill Hicks-style vocal flourishes.
Bio / Background
December 1, 2002 review of Ingredients by Chad Hutchison, Ghostland.com
“HomBru is a three-piece ensemble from Denton, TX consisting of David Huff (Stick), Michael Powell (guitar, vocals), and Todd Wink (drums, electronic percussion). The band released their first independent album in 1999 entitled "Imaginary Music" as a five-piece band, but afterwards reflected on their future as a band making relatively non-commercial music. The band took some time off and reconvened as a trio. In 2002, Huff, Powell, and Wink released a 5-track CD called "Ingredients," from which "The Nerve" is taken. On the surface, HomBru sounds like a blend of Gordian Knot and Tool. They incorporate heavy, Stick-laden grooves and edgy guitar riffs with cerebral lyrics that occasionally break into growly Bill Hicks-style vocal flourishes.
Their more melodic moments are reminiscent of upper-tier King's X.
↓ more ↓For a trio, HomBru fills in the space very well with effects, arpeggios, and most notably the excellent drumwork by Todd Wink. In a guitar-driven band such as this, it is easy to focus on the melodies and grooves, but it is worth listening to the work that Wink puts down behind it all. The "Ingredients" EP is a very good introduction to what HomBru is all about”.
