"Quinn remains our best bet for a next-generation British cult figure likely to continue surprising us in 10, even 20, years... these are artists at work, and your applause is as the gurgling of a far-distant toilet." 5/5, Pop CD of the Week by Stewart Lee in The Sunday Times
"Odd as a bag of badgers, but very good."Four Stars - The Independent
"...like a less mantric Can, overlaid with suggestions of Miles Davis and ambient-period Brian Eno... The result is unaffectedly bucolic, alternately hazy and acute" 3/4 - Mojo on 'Isle of Grain'
"It's the Can-like trance-funk, woozy folk, Henry Cow-style chamber rock, Eno-era Roxy Music and the prog-jazz of trumpeter Dr Andrew Blick that makes this great" 4/5 - Uncut on 'IoG'
"One More Grain are a strange bunch" - The Guardian
"Post-punk with brass? Don't be scared - this London-based quartet mix sleek sounds with John Cooper Clark-esque wisdom" - NME
"A pheasant drive with laser guns... A compelling album." - The Wire
"This is psychogeography with trumpets and sumptuous locked down grooves... a ramble through the dales with accompaniment courtesy of New Orleans and Detroit." - PlayLouder
"Great English talent...4/5" - The Sunday Times on 'Pigeon English'
"Weird yet wonderful" - Drowned in Sound
"Go. Seek. Buy. This record feels like the start of something special" - Make Noise and Dance
"Pigeon English is the work of a unique mind... Pere Ubu and Can for a new generation" - 4/5 - The Stool Pigeon
"One More Grain perfectly pinpoint the wonder and disillusion inherent in these damp isles." - Plan B
"A band who provide Technicolor contrast to the Capital's current crop of dayglo dreamers" - Channel 4's 4Talent
"So special....fantastic and utterly unmissable" - Whisperin & Hollerin
"Punk funk jazz with story telling, it sounds weird but it's excellent, honest" - John Kennedy, Xfm
"This is One More Grain, it's called Having A Ball. It tickles us in the right place... One of the most catchy songs of the year we think. It's great." - Zane Lowe, Radio 1
"A woozy, modal stream-of-consciousness narrative of escape that displays them at their inimitable best." - BBC Collective on A Town Is What You Make It | | Record Label | Static Caravan, White Heat, Victory Garden | | Type of Label | Indie |
