"This band has slacker rock down to a fine art - one could almost call them expert amateurs." Tom Wilson SAUCE Entertainment Press

"catchy and unique" - Buzz magazine

"You guys are the weirdest band I have seen" - Simon Holmes, Bigshed Studios

"One of the states most entertaining postmodern explorations of alternative music, the bands set was a mixed bag of cheeky songs laced with toilet humour and varied music styles covering punk rock, hip hop, blues and elements of jazz and pop" - The Examiner Newspaper

"both disturbing and highly entertaining" - Gareth from the Von Trolley Quartet

"Primus on Crack" - SAUCE Magazine
