"Kni9hts have always refused to conform to any scenes, rules or fashions and concentrated instead on making absolutely brilliant tunes. Tunes which recall The Charlatans' way with a leftfield pop melody and The Chameleons' sense of the atmospheric, with Carlo's voice floating over rich Rickenbacker guitar lines and warm keyboards. It's the dynamics, the spot-on balance that makes this such a great sound - you'd be convinced there was a second guitar in there if you couldn't see there definitely wasn't. Some of these tunes, such as the downbeat "Coastal" and the near-epic "Jolan District" (it's a part of Fallujah devastated by years of war and unrest - so not your average indie band subject matter then) have been around their set for a few years now and you wonder why more people aren't listening, whilst "Shadow Of The Beast" is, despite its title, wonderfully life-affirming guitar pop. Elsewhere they've got that classic North Western post-punk thing going on, all hammered toms and sweeping guitar lines that sound like dark clouds over the moors and make the hairs on the back of the neck tingle. Sometimes it's easy to take local bands for granted, to forget just how bloody good they are. A great start to the weekend." - Cath Aubergine, Manchester Music.
