Dan Hegarty- RTE 2FM "It felt like this band had fallen
off the face of the earth, but they're back, and the new
material is the best stuff they've ever done - 'Get Me A Gun'
and 'Wait Don't Wait' are some of the best rock tunes I've
heard in ages."
Ed Power-HotPress Magazine "This (a.f.k) is marvelous-an absurd, flamboyant chunk of neo-glam, with grinding riffs and a chorus worth spilling virgin blood for."
Dara Byrne-Laoise Weekly "A brillian variety of songs and styles, all three members of the band played off each other brilliantly"
Ciarán Ryan-NME (Ireland) "A delicious slice of stoner rock."
Rory Mc.Connell-BBC Radio 1 "To carry this sort of sound off it has to come from a place that most artists aren't prepared to explore. The deeper, darker, and most importantly truth bearing parts of the soul. Fairuza go there frequently, and kick its contents indiscriminately over everyone listening."
Brinepacer, Pacer Fanzine"Every song sounds like
falling in love."
Rick O'Shea- RTE 2FM "It's about time big things happened for Fairuza and this ep might just be the one to do it for them...."
Shilpa Ganatra-HotPress Magazine "(a.f.k) confirms what their first release "Beautiful" suggested: they're rough as they are ready, as indignantly rawk as they are astute songwriters."
Cormac Battle- RTE 2FM "Utterly Raw and
uncompromised....it's time to take notice"
Alison Curtis-Today FM "I'm really enjoying this
[(a.f.k) EP]Its a really full, mature sound, reminiscent of a
mix of Queens of the Stone Age, early Nirvana and the best of
Dinosaur Jr ..
Jackie Hayden-Hot Press "Unlike a host of their rivals,
Fairuza seem to have their eyes firmly set on the future
without betraying the past. So keep all your ears open for
them."
Hannah Hamilton-Hot Press "Fairuza strike a chord
between chugging rock riffs, seething breathy vocals,
considered lyrics and melodic choruses."
John Walshe-Hot Press "There are flashes of genuine
inspiration..'Everyway you Turn, you're Beautiful' is a
cracking tune, the melody taut as a hanging-rope, the rhythm
section providing a tense canvas for Kryz to paint his wordy
pictures, with tempo changes seeming more natural than
stylised. Similarly, the tight-as-a-fish's-arse 'Cherry
Vanilla' sees them heading in the right direction: the
thumping beat and Muse-like serrated guitar being sure to
endear them to Dublin's army of indie kids."
Stephanie OBrien- Iris Magazine "The mini-album starts
with a radio-friendly rock anthem with an addictive chorus,
the title-track 'Beautiful'. The tune 'White Lights' has a
great raw rock guitar thread running through it. Kryz Reid
delivers well-articulated, intense lyric and the record makes
you feel you are sitting right there among the amps in the
studio."
Tom from Soundwaves
"Over the last couple of years Fairuza have proven to be one
of the best Dublin bands around. Their debut mini-album
'Beautiful' (Fairuzamusic) is solid evidence. The live
favourites 'Hannigan' and 'Champagne Industry' are joined by
their strongest track 'Every Way You Turn, You're Beautiful' -
a song that should, and might just be huge."
