Reviews:

"Not being too unfair on the other bands, but I thought my night had been wasted. Until AstroManiacs came on the stage, that is. First impressions were the same as all the other bands – young, inexperienced, but I stayed, as I thought it would have been unfair to leave without watching them all. And my word! I'm glad I did. They kicked off with a questionable song, which I believe was down to the sound technician playing with the sound, but after that, they were truly great. The last two songs that they played were nothing short of top draw. Simply fantastic. If either of them had been released on a CD, I would be on my way to buy it now. As soon as they are, I will be. I have no doubt that these guys will be snapped up soon. The different effects and their style of music varied so much that they will appeal to everyone. Speaking to the band afterwards, they said they didn't think it had gone very well. I would love to see a gig where they think it had gone well!"

Young Leicester band AstroManiacs took to the stage next to give us a plentiful dose of engaging and confident vocals from Nik on guitar and Ryan on lead guitar. Their set of upbeat, scintillating indie pop punk songs glowed with vigor and enthusiasm and catchy riffs. The three string players blended their instruments into lovely grindy, crunchy sounds, driving the songs forward with a great deal of bounce and weaving in some shouty, clappy bits that got the audience's hands going. Dynamic, fulsome tunes rendered with genuine vitality made the lad's set welcome and enjoyable."

"AstroManiacs are another rising young band to have hit the local scene and made a name for themselves. Originally a four piece, tonight they played as a trio and are now trying to figure out if it would be better to stay this way. The three lads worked well together to pump out a set of strong, rocky songs, punctuated by razor sharp stops. Rather than being slaves to indie, this band has worked out how to make a truly contemporary sound that stays loyal to the roots of rock. The resulting set was grounded in canononical rock and they have the raw energy and total enthusiasm for their work to appeal to a wide cross section of people. Able song crafters, they gave out some captivating melodies. Another young band with a shed load of promise."

''Young Leicester band AstroManiacs played a solid set of their own poppy, rocky indie songs. Shed loads of promise in that band.''

''There was one band that grabbed my attention, the young but incredibly talented, four piece ‘AstroManiacs’ from Countesthorpe College. I was impressed with the professionalism and dedication to their music.''
