“The band name and song titles might be ever so slightly random (‘I’d wear a hat like that is I was from Yorkshire’ anyone?) but trust us when we say thats the only thing this quartet leave to fate and the falling breeze. More complex and tightly structures than Jose Mourinho’s tactics board, there is a maturity evident here that belied the young age of this spazzcore crew. The cheap comparisons to The Fall of Troy and Minus The Bear bestowed by all and sundry during the fledging stages of their career do nothing to speak of the originality and bloody single mindedness that seeps from this record’s every pore.” Rock Sound
”’impressive debut from young sound-sculptors’ This debut is an album of two sides, delicacy verses pure thunder. It’s a deeply textured release, guitar lines peal from the fret-board in such intricate ways (not heard since Storm and Stress) that they dance dizzily, before plundering into thrash bombs. It’s a very satisfying process to experience. The vocals are interesting too, bending and swaying in interesting approaches and alternative melodic nuances. The rhythm section is also sorted, drums swagger in an offbeat before songs crash in with perfect cohesion; the arrangements are incredibly strong. This album on a whole is a masterpiece, an album you can thrash-out to or listen to with the deepest of concentration it will leave both urges fully contented.” Big Cheese
“Well timed, razor sharp rhythms” Rock Sound September
“Having developed their playing and assimilated a lot more influences has really opened them up. The biggest surprise was that it sounded a lot like one of my favourite bands, The Murder Of Rosa Luxembourg. With a more melodic bent in places and some nice little indie touches. Fans of The Murder Of…, ATDI, Kids Near Water and The Standard would do well to check them out.” Die Shellsuit Die
“They need some exposure and they deserve it. Its kinda like Fugazi and maybe a little bit of Bloc Party” KERRANG! Radio
