Bros: The screaming hasn't stopped, but arguments are helping them build bridges

Bros have admitted there have been some big rows ahead of their UK tour, but say that their now-legendary documentary Bros: After the Screaming Stops was a “bridge-building bit of therapy”.

Matt and Luke Goss reformed after years apart for a 30th anniversary show in 2018, with a fly-on-the wall documentary recording the volatile period leading up to the shows.

Now, they’re prepping for a UK tour and later this month will feature in a new BBC Four show A Night in with Bros - but the arguments aren’t over just yet.

The brothers appeared on This Morning, where they famously had a blazing row just before being due on screen in backstage footage for After the Screaming Stops.

Asked whether there had been any artistic differences this time around, Matt replied: “Oh yeah. Me and Luke, we go at it like nobody else, but we’ve had a couple of rows in rehearsals.

“But the difference is that because of the film, the thing we realised is that nothing, no argument, is bigger than being brothers and our friendship.”

Luke chimed in: “You know what it is, I think unless you’re really pursuing that middle of the road music that’s nice and simple, which is still cool, if you’re having two different influences it’s not definitive.

“An opinion that comes from a creative place, you’re passionate about it, so the melee of that is what makes the sound.”

Bros admitted that while the documentary had been difficult to watch, it had been a huge benefit to their relationship as brothers after years of not performing together and barely staying in touch.

Matt said: “We addressed things in the film that strangely, the cameras were like our therapist-stroke-mediator.

“We had a lot of pain and issues that we had not resolved, and we resolved them on screen and we didn’t know that was going to happen.

“To see my brother in pain and vice versa, I think that we actually realised when you guys did that we were actually in pain about things throughout our lives, the loss of our sister and our mother.”

Luke added that the film had been a healing experience.

He said: “I’ve said before, we were so busy creating a foundation we could live upon and live from, that we hadn’t given ourselves as a family any time to address not only post-fame, but there was just so much that we hadn’t got around to, so that was a bridge-building bit of therapy.

“Any bands out there will know that we’re a bunch of brats when we start getting creative and that’s the idea, it’s how you work out that communication.”
