The Break is:a. Brian Ritchie’s band with members of Midnight Oil with an album called Church of the Open Sky.
b. When a wave crests and falls particularly a place where the surfing is really great. See also surf break, point break, beach break, reef break, shore break, big wave break, etc.
c. Both a. and b.
If you listen to KROQ, you’ve heard the Violent Femmes on and off singing “Blister In The Sun,” “Add It Up,” or “Gone Daddy Gone.” It’s still hard to believe the Violent Femmes broke up after nearly making the 30 year mark of being a band. You may have also heard the Australian band Midnight Oil during your growing up years in LA (or elsewhere).
