We Present You With These... is the 5 track debut CD from Freedom Faction.

Freedom Faction blend youthful enthusiasm with experience to produce a punchy, gritty sound which is fun to listen to and they have successfully transferred from the live arena to the recording studio.

Blah, Blah, Blah
A jaunty little number. Very simple in construction but has edge and attitude.
1..2..3..4..
Less pop more punch than the opener. Again another simple song with straightfoward, no nonsense delivery. The vocals have the right touch of angst.
Viva La Punk
A rallying call to punks everywhere "We're The Future, We're The Past, Join Us Quick, It Won't Last!Have a Jack, Have A Beer, Just Get Yourselves, The Fuck Down Here" proclaims this song. A proud, powerful, piece of punk played with passion.Check out the bridge with its SKA/REGGAE feel!
I'll Hang (On Your Every Word)
Shows the dark, gothic, underbelly of the band. This song demonstrates the range of the vocalist as well. The phazed guitar sound has a Hawkwindesque, early 70's feel about it.
Come Up And Get It
The final song returns to the style of the opener but with a dash more edge and a lot more attitude. Listen hard enough and you can hear the vocalist smiling as she delivers her lines!

Overall a first recording of which the band can be justifiably proud.

Rhianna Milton - (VOX)
One of the youngsters in the band. She shows good control, has a powerful singing style, but also has depth and range which as it develops will be a great asset to the band.
Tom Maddox - (DRUMS)
The other youngster in the band. He is already a talented stick man and shows some great touches. Another, that can only get better with time and experience.
Nick Grant - (BASS)
Provides the rhythm section with vast experience. A member of the defunct Out Of Nowhere (amongst others), Nick has been around the scene for many a year and uses this to great effect.
Jez Arnold (GUITAR)
Like Nick, a fellow alumni of Out Of Nowhere. Switching to guitar for this project Jez has a simple style with no frills that fits perfectly with the bands sound and provides the drive for each song.
