"WITCH DOCTOR" VIDEO
"Dirty as a gothic drifter, 'Witch Doctor' meanders itself along menacingly, glaring at you out the corner of its eye, with its big black leather collar up. This boy/ girl duo create something dark and fine.....it makes you come out in a cold sweat. Intense and morbid- go and get it." ARTROCKER
"A rolling
stamped, bluesy brooding track that fizzles,
sparks and spits almost as much as it
caresses, kneads and heals." UNPEELED
"Cottonmouth Rocks don't so much fuse rock and dance as understand that both come from the same place. The slow, sleazy 'Witch Doctor' has slo-mo Bo Diddley blues vibes and a relentless head-nod groove." MIXMAG
"unravel a duo
seemingly hell-bent on a creative mission to evoke another world.....It's messy, feral and as
frail as a sheet of sodden tissue paper but when coupled with these tales
of rural America each song on this double-sided single comes to life like a
plaid-shirted bar-fly on his 4th tumbler of Bourbon." FRESH DEER MEAT
"Menacing, unreal tales in minimal rough-edged rock'n'soul" - THE SOURCE

So it turns out, someone is actually crazy enough to let us play a gig! I know, we're not sure what they are thinking either, maybe they hate the people that come to their night? or maybe they can smell the future and it's wearing a lab coat and goggles...

Hey Sally, just to let you know (and anyone else passing by your page who might be interested) - there are just a couple of days left to enter the Rockstar competition which I listen for. The prizes include being the first confirmed act for Glastonbury 2010 and some recording time at RealWorld studios, and 3 finalists get to play the Pilton Party which is huge. Looking for all kinds of music so don't be put off by the name.
Details at rockstarbands.co.uk - it's free to enter. Entrants mustn't have an existing record or publishing contract.
