Basic's first release, Presenting e.p., features three rock'n'ass tunes and two weird ones; total time 9:33.
"High-energy music behind insightful lyrics drives this bombastic ultra-punk duo." Jared DuBach, Daily Egyptian's alt weekender, The Pulse. (July, 2004)
"[Reid] Lirely's drumming sounds like gunfire on the beaches of Normandy, and [Leah] Stone's screaming vocals and jamming guitars make the duo sound much bigger than they are." Codell Rodriguez, Southern Illinoisan's alt weekender, The Flipside. (June, 2004)
"Basic blew me away. When [your flier] said Bad Brains eats Hendrix we were like whoa! We love Bad Brains so you got points just for that. But when you played it was fucking awesome." Randy, guitarist in The Invincible Speedholes, www.TheSpeedholes.com. (June, 2004)
