Product Description: With a frenetic live-show and no-holds-barred attitude, Lancaster PA’s CIRCUS CIRCUS has been turning heads everywhere they play and building anticipation of their debut release. With the release of Brooklyn Nightlife, CIRCUS CIRCUS comes barreling out of the gate with a perfectly calculated mass of screaming, throbbing chaos.
Nightlife is a relentless sonic assault of an album that acutely pulsates with both danceability and destructibility, combining celebration with chaos. To oversimplify things - It’s a sound that’s too metal to be punk, but too punk to be metal.
Reviews:
“Circus Circus put together a perfectly balanced musical masterpiece… This release is, for lack of a better word, incredible.” –AMP
“In a year of exceedingly over-hyped crap, Brooklyn Nightlife deserves every piece of praise it receives and provides a nice reminder that there are still bands out there that can create unique music and kick ass doing it… These guys aren't going to stay small for long.” –Absolute Punk
"Imagine a band with the intensity of UnderOATH, the emotion of Rites Of Spring, the tongue-in-cheek insanity of The Blood Brothers, the sense of ripping melody of Alexisonfire and the tendency to pack almost as much good stuff into their songs as The Dillinger Escape Plan and you might have yourself a vague idea of what Circus Circus sound like. 9/10” -RockFreaks
"Brooklyn Nightlife is definitely one of the best and most original post-hardcore releases I have heard in 2008 and one of those rare albums that will have a longer life-cycle in my CD-player… A rock solid debut.” -HardcoreSounds
"Circus Circus has created an album that draws you to your feet. Prepare to jump, head bang, and go all out… Brooklyn Nightlife is a guaranteed good time." –MusicReviewer
“If you're going to call it post-hardcore then go ahead, but get this straight: these guys aren't a carbon copy… I truthfully cannot find a bad thing about Brooklyn Nightlife. It's consistent, the musicianship is outstanding, and the vocals are even better. If you enjoy this kind of post-hardcore, hardcore, or whatever you want to call it, then Circus Circus has the perfect album for you.” - -Highbeam Review
"For the people who miss the days when screamo and hardcore punk were a lot more intermixed and chaos was the whole point of music, here’s your new favorite album." –Sputnik Music
“This is quite impressive stuff… If you're looking for something honest, raw, aggressive and fucking good you should pick this record up in double quick time.” –Punktastic
“Good stuff... Circus Circus should be at the top of the heap.” –Aiding & Abetting
“Thundering double-bass breakdowns and jerky, angular guitar riffs [accompanied by] pop melodies that make for an intoxicating cocktail.” –Fly Magazine
