REVIEWS FOR "ALWAYS IS NEVER THE SAME"

"Assured post-grunge collection that matches the seductive melodic maturity of prime Foo Fighters with the dramatic dynamism of full-tilt Placebo, 7/10" - Classic Rock Magazine

"An awesome piece of homegrown alternative rock....these guys are gonna be huge, 12/13" - Roomthirteen.com

"There is an awesome selection of songs on offer here....what a glorious treat it is!....definitely a band to watch out for" - Powerplay magazine

"This is extremely good stuff.....a debut release to be very proud of, very proud of indeed, 4/5" - Rockmidgets.com

'Highly infectious, 3/5' - Black Velvet

"it's pretty damn good!" - Martin Bate, XFM Scotland

"This could be album of the year....you HAVE to buy this album" - Dead Earnest

"Raw yet polished, a combination that’s struck upon about as regularly as a new diamond mine in the Lake District, but when it happens, it means good things. DCR have struck it and they’ve now got plenty of gems in their repertoire" - Subba Cultcha

"This album will appeal to a surprising amount of people, with very different musical tastes....theres a lot of quality here" - One louder Radio UK


Dead City Riots are David Cunningham (vocals), Cameron Smart (bass), Greg Tees (guitar) and Chris Coll (drums).

They've been one of the best live bands on the Glasgow circuit for the last few years, they played a full UK tour with Fu Manchu in summer 2007 and have also played gigs with Kasabian, Brigade, Slaves To Gravity, Lost Alone, King Adora, Enjoy Destroy, The Miles Hunt Club (ex wonderstuff), The Ga Ga's, Sluts of Trust, Chikinki, Smother, Fallen To and many more.

Their debut album, Always is never the same, was recorded with Chris Gordon (Union Of Knives, Deckard, Baby Chaos), and was released in October 2006 on Casket/Copro Records. The band are currently writing material for their 2nd album which they hope to release sometime in 2009.

Some comments on the band:

"Searing guitar riffs meet fantastic high altitude vocal lines and it's all gloriously cranked up to 11" - re:union magazine

"If anthemic rock is your cup of tea then they may just be your can of cherry coke" - Greater Glasgow Music Magazine

"Professional rock at it's best....catch these guys before you have to pay much more for the privilege"- podboyrecords.co.uk

"A powerful EP....fast paced and edgy"- zeitgeist-scot.co.uk

"Like Bauhaus duelling with Nirvana....they clearly have the potential to hone their sound into the righteous rock monster it is so clearly destined to be" - Daily Record

"Judging by their most recent EP "What's My Pill?" it won't be long before they climb to the top of the musical ladder, 4/5"- Sunday Mail

"Unreconstructed pre-rock riff-laden mayhem....it's definitely rock and roll, 3/5"- The List

"Grungy vocals guaranteed to make your spine tingle....a pleasure to listen to "What's My Pill?" hints at far, far more brilliance to be offered from this Scottish 4-piece, 9/10" - rockpulse.co.uk

"Wild and energetic....brilliantly addictive, 12/13" - roomthirteen.com

"One of the bands who are making a good name for the Glasgow music scene" - jockrock.org

"A band that, live, will knock your boots off" - Lick Magazine

"A perfect lesson in how rock should be done....go and see them live, and don't be surprised if you hear "What's My Pill?" on your radio sometime soon" - Glasswerk Glasgow
