"THERAPY? band favourites 2013"
Michael Mckeegan - THERAPY?

"Loved your cd. I wasn't expecting you to be so angry! Angry in the right way of course. I could hear Albini & early Therapy? Will definately give it another listen'' - Nicky Wire / MANIC STREET PREACHERS

“THIS IS WRECKAGE were one of the real highlights of this years SWN festival. People were shouting about how good and loud they were as their ears were all knackered.”
- Adam Walton, BBC RADIO WALES (Nov 02, 2013)

“Blown away - or rather, torn apart and trampled into Clwb Ifor Bach's floor by the sonic tank that is THIS IS WRECKAGE at SWN FEST 2013. Ace!”
- I LOVES THE 'DIFF (Oct 19, 2013)

“This Is Wreckage are probably the hardest looking bunch of bastards we’ve seen all weekend. We’re considering having them escort us down the road at the end of the day but are too afraid to even say hello. This hard fast trio could be the bastard sons of Jesus Lizard, Killing Joke or Therapy? Having a pink My Little Pony sat upright at the front of the stage does not hide the fact that these boys would scare the bouncers on the door outside if things ever got nasty.””
- Keith Goldhanger, LOUDER THAN WAR (Oct 20, 2013)

“Just discovered THIS IS WRECKAGE - noisy groove-porn punk - AWESOME!”
SONIC FORGE MUSIC

“The band sounds excellent. The album sounds wicked! "2+2=bastard" is a stonker!”
Michael Mckeegan / THERAPY?

“So much enjoyment of THIS IS WRECKAGE at CLWB IFOR BACH tonight! Awesome grunge vibe with some metally riffs thrown in for good measure.”
CDF RVW

“An enjoyably ugly racket ”
THE JOY COLLECTIVE

''Valleys based band This is Wreckage are not for the faint hearted.  Their sound suits their name perfectly: fast and furious post-punk with aggressive riffs, clashing discord, and screaming vocals.  The three piece certainly pack a punch, with thunderous drumming from Pling, heavy basslines from Ruggz, and some serious guitar thrashing from Grave (yes, those are their names, that is how badass they are).  If you love noise rock bands like The Jesus Lizard and Big Black then you’ll love this.  Expect some serious wreckage, of the ear drum variety.''
SWN FESTIVAL 2013

“The album is a damn fine - and much needed - blast of fascinating noise and excellent songs. Enjoyed it immensely. ”
Adam Walton - BBC Radio Wales

“This is Wreckage is a very tough, musically en-pointe band whose sound is fresh, angry and bolshie. There is no way they can be ignored and I fully expect them to be making a big splash on the underground music scene very soon. Look out for them!”
Lisa Mary - SECRET SOUNDS


“This is Wreckage's track 'Running in Furs' is probably my favourite new thing I've played this week - It's flipping ace! ”
Adam Walton - BBC Radio Wales

“Anyone of a sensitive disposition can stop reading now – tonight’s gig was not for weak ears. This Is Wreckage sound pretty much exactly like you’d expect a band called This Is Wreckage to sound: noisy, throaty, and twisted. The guitar is loud and fuzzy and the drumming is big and brutal. The basslines, conversely, are pretty funky, in a heavily distorted sort of way. TIW boast catchy, fuzzed-up hooks and some upbeat melodies underneath the noise, and they’re a pretty endearing lot: the guitarist has a mild penchant for Joe Strummer-esque axe abuse, they give out free demo CDs wrapped in punky-looking gaffer tape, and they have a My Little Pony figurine as their mascot. What’s not to like?”
Joel Dear - THE MMP

“Rad new Cardiff band 'This Is Wreckage' serve up five tracks inspired by various canonical post-punk groups (PiL are recalled in the Lydon-ish vocal drama of Deccan Traps) and acidic noise-rock as typified by Steve Albini’s various ventures over the last 30 years. Bands like this are underrepresented round here currently, if you ask me, so hopefully TIW can grow in stature. Punchy cuts like Sovereign Teeth bang seriously hard.”
Noel Gardner - BUZZ MAGAZINE

“Good stuff.”
Steve Albini - SHELLAC/RAPEMAN/BIG BLACK

“I really like this stuff.”
Eli Janney - GIRLS AGAINST BOYS

“Fucking A. The jams sound great. Tough as hell and great recording. Sounds like they"d be a lot of fun to play.”
Matt Mcauley - A.R.E. WEAPONS

“Proper.”
David Francolini - DRAGONS/DARK STAR/LEVITATION

Mr Lee*G a.k.a Lee G, comes from his given name Leroy Griffith jr. A man on a mission. A natural talent with a lyrical flow that is destined for greatness. His musical roots started at the age of five where he sang in the S.D.A church choir in Trinidad, the island of his birth. In 1988, he migrated to Brooklyn, New York with dreams of becoming a star. He later enrolled in Julia Richman H.S for performing arts, were he studied Musical theater. As his musical interest grew stronger, R&B and reggae greats like the Isley Brothers, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, R. Kelly, Mary J Blige, Jodeci, Bob Marley, Dennis Brown, Jacob Killer Miller, Shabba Ranks, Capleton, Shadow, Black Stalin and David Rudder to name a few, inspired him to write and perform his own music.

In 1993 Lee*G was featured on the album "Surrender" MK featuring Alana, the songs are "Crazy Crazy", "Precious Jewels" and he did the ruff mix for "Love Changes" (Charisma Records America).

In 1995, Mr.Lee*G appeared and performed in the video "Let Me Show You" with female MC Cherokee (Low Key Records)which received heavy rotation on Video Music Box, The Juke Box and B.E.T. Since then the artiste has worked with various producers such as Frank Nitty, RED, Marc (mk) Kinchen, Finesse, Commissioner Gordon, Finguz (Etaste studios), Mattias Emanuelsson (Svart Ehuru Vit .Sweden), Lukas Kaiser (Lewcypher), Congoman Crew (Sweden) and Q.W.P inc.(T&T,MIA) to perfect his craft.

In 2001, Mr.Lee*G was featured on two tracks of Hip Hop artist Master Ace's CD titled " Disposable Arts." The tracks are "Every Other Day" and "ENUFF".

In January 2002 LG released a 45/7" single under the Ethiopian taste records titled "The Healing of the Nation", later that year another single titled "Believe" as well as a soca 45/7" titled "A Man to Woman" under the same label.

In 2004 LG finished his CD titled "They Wanna Know Who's.....the Mix CD" which he released on his own label, OonLah Records Co. The title song, "They Wanna Know Who's Lee*G" was the result of a collaboration with producer Lukas Kaiser (lewcypher). There are 16 hot songs on the CD, like "Raindrops", "Cannibus Tonight", "It Is On" and "Believe". At the same time the artiste was again featured on Master Ace's follow up album "A Long Hot Summer" , singing the hook on the single "Good Ol Luv". He then went on tour for three months with the Verizon Ladies first tour in 2004, as one of Beyonce's muscle men., carrying her onto the stage when it was showtime. Other artistes featured on the tour were Alicia Keys, Missy Elliott and Tamia.

　

In 2005 he continued to strive, recording and performing when and where ever he could. In the summer he shot his video for the single, "They Wanna Know Who's Lee*G" with director Mat Donnelly from Montreal, Canada, which was then followed by a new single with producer Ghislain Porier from Canada titled "Dem Nah Like Me" in February 2006.

In 2007 Lee*G released his album "Real Recognize Real" .

The incident that resulted in his album "Standing" slated to be released in 2011 had its beginning in 2008 when Mr. Lee G went to Trinidad to promote his music. Since he did not grow up in his birth country the artiste wanted to let "his people" know about his music and introduced a CD dedicated to his mother, entitled "Mama". Two weeks later he was invited to perform at a stage show in Trinidad. When the after party was over Mr. Lee G left the venue alone and was approached by a vehicle and 6 shots were fired at him. 3 bullets hit him in his arm, back and leg. To this date Mr. Lee G says he does not know any reason behind the shooting or who was the shooter.

"Standing" is the outcome of the first year of recovery dealing with the feelings of being a victim. Mr. Lee G recorded 24 songs with various producers from Sweden to Brooklyn, making reggae songs to heal others. The first single from the album was recorded while on tour with Congoman Crew from Ostersund, Sweden in 2009. With gun violence rampant across the Caribbean, Mr. Lee G feels that he can make a positive contribution and change and inspire others to lead a better life. The first single, also entitled "Standing", will be released end of 2010 with a video soon to follow. Mr. Lee G explains that the title "Standing" is very significant as he never fell to the ground when he was shot but instead was left standing and able to walk to his car and drive to the hospital. He calls it "A Blessing from Jah". With a fiance and daughter in Jamaica Mr. Lee G has found another home also in the country of reggae music, Jamaica.

His goal is to make good music for the heart and souls of those willing to listen to his true blend of R&B, reggae and HipHop music . "There is an element that brings it all together and it's the soul in our music, our music is life" says Mr.Lee*G.

Übernoise is unique.

Übernoise is divided in the Übernoise Collective, a loose fusion of young independent artists with own productions, and the Übernoise publishing label, which is meant as a full service provider and wants to help young artists and bands from scratch and to produce for them on the basis of individual and customized concepts. Motor and heart of Übernoise is Christoph Landes.

Übernoise is independent.

Behind Übernoise is no big record label, no marketing people, no interest group no matter what kind. On Übernoise we only support projects and people that we really like - and we have to admit often only for subjective reasons. Because they have interesting ideas, are commited to something great, because they are new and exciting, really stand behind what they are doing and because we believe that also others should share this experience with us.

Übernoise is (for) free.

Everything you find on Übernoise, no matter if it costs money or if it is for free, can be distributed, shared, adapted, changed and whatever else you want to do with it.
