The best thing to come out of Belfast since George Best, or at the very least the DeLorean DMC-12. Here’s what the hacks have to say about us:
"What can you say about Dirty Stevie? Brash, loud, unrepentant, they deserve to fail for so many reasons. Having labelled themselves the best band in the country, on the evidence of this record it’s becoming harder to argue with them. Bastards."
(The News Letter)
"The best band in the country." (Alternative Ulster)
"One of Belfast’s best and most entertaining bands."
(The Big List)
"Juggernaut rock causing a stir in the big city."
(The Windmill, Brixton)
"Over the top, odds shouting, beer swilling and attitude throwing, Dirty Stevie are everything a good rock band should be."
(NIMIC Magazine)
"Down and dirty balls-to-the-wall rock music."
(Sorted Magazine)
"Vocalist Smitty has a voice seemingly powered by at least four lungs."
(Belfast Telegraph)
"With a little refinement, this lot could be superstars. God help us."
(the Irish News)
"American influenced pub rock standards."
(Rory McConnell, BBC Radio 1)
£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David

Press Reviews:
"NIXA possess a quality that sets them apart from other front runners on the alt/rock scene with perfect dynamics and incredible song craft. They bounce between gentle and aggressive in a single beat, tied with soaring harmonies and mesmerising stage presence. This band will find themselves being listened to by a wide audience, no doubts in both the alternative and commercial rock scenes" Alli Hodge, TotalRock Radio
"...done very, very well. Deep, powerful voice, BIG music and just the feeling that something very professional is happening -I don't mean in a clinical way, just in that way that, when you find out they're unsigned, it's a bit of a shock!" Marsha Shandur XFM
"Gutsy, melodic, and totally credible, Nixa deliver that refreshing breed of British rock that will fly off shelves and download sites." Dave Grenfell, FeedMe Music, Promoter of The Year 2008 Indy Awards
"One of the top 10 unsigned acts in the UK" Metro National Newspaper

Make this your rock'n'roll night on the town this Xmas!!
This will be our final gig, and what better way to go out than sharing a stage with one of our favourite bands? Thanks to all the people we've worked and played with over the last few years; we hope we've turned some frowns upside down...we've certainly had so much fun it probably should've been illegal! I think it could be summed up best by one of the great thinkers of our time, Mr Vinnie Jones: "It's been emotional..."
Thanks for friending up! I hope you enjoy the music and don't forget to check out the press release for Retrospect Records 2008 release of "Meet My Demons" Press Release Here
