Sounds Like	"Behind walls of intertwining sounds is buckets of energy and charm such as that found in the beat box intro to 'Boots and Cats' and the melodic shifts such as the lovely couple of minutes towards the end of 'These Are The Dogs In My Life Part 2'. Even at their most loud and frantic during 'Last Man In Irkutsk' it never sounds anything less than euphonious." - Robots Made Me Do It "Hair Traffic Control are a quality band that should be booked on bills and listened to with ears." - thesonicminefield "Awesome mid-western influenced guitar and incredible song mayhem" - Safetydance "Whimsical post-rock digressions" - Maddog Magazine "The EP gets off to a solid start with the instantly catchy pop-punk of opener ‘Thanks For the Beer’, but it’s the more introspective moments here that really shine. ‘Are We Not Reasonable People?’ is a fragile delight whilst ‘The One With the Brutal Face Pounding’ is the real highlight here. Starting out like the more hyperactive twin of Hot Club De Paris' ‘Clockwork Toy’, it’s a rollercoaster of spazzy guitars and intricate drumming before drifting to a wistful halt." - Godisinthetv "Upbeat math-pop done right, even if they do have a stupid name." - Big Scary Monsters "The name is silly not stupid" - The Good Ship or, listen to our live radio session right here and decide for yourself...

About Hair Traffic Control

We're Hair Traffic Control. We got together in late 2007 and since then we've had the good pleasure of recording and self-releasing 2 EPs, being featured on a BSM compilation, touring with A Bear, and playing countless shows up and down this fine country with the likes of Cats in Paris, Jonquil, Sucioperro, This Town Needs Guns, Worrier and Secondsmile.

We're currently writing and recording new material, but if you'd like us to bring the noise to you in person, give us a shout and we'll see what we can do.

RUSSELL WICKWAR PRODUCTIONS + wiQwar presents...	Jun 5 2009 3:06 PM "The Hand are Bristol-based musicians Rachael Dadd & Wig Smith. Together they share a love of folk, blues and world music and play an exotic array of instruments including Kora, Banjo, Ukulele, and Harmonium. They are touring the UK with Japanese solo artist Ichi, who takes the notion of a one-man band to new limits – combining steel drum with ping-pong balls, tape-loops, trumpet and xylophone. Support comes from Norwich-based musicians Sam James Hill and Tenderlion plus Buffet Style DJ's playing music from the psyche's deli..." @ DRAGON HALL, Norwich - Sat 20th June 2009. 7.30pm £5 on the door.
