Breakneck were significant players in the wave of Nu-Metal bands that cropped up in East Kent in the late 1990s. More brutal and more progressive than most, they quickly gained attention in the UKs Hardcore/Metal underground, regularly playing with such bands as Earthtone9, for whom Jamie briefly played bass.
In 2000, they changed their name to Deadlifeportrait.
