Album Reviews and Quotes:
“Doleful pornographic poetry” – Q magazine -"strange, sometimes disturbing..music that's as creepily compelling as it is unapproachably aloof" - pitchfork review - "Cocks, cocaine, wanking, fags, fucking, tits...there's just nothing else to say about this record." - VICE magazine - "too much meandering anti-folk" - Stoolpigeon - "We have to warn you that only four of the songs on this record have what could be recognized as a melody" - Time Out - "Who else could say 'knickers on yer doorstep' and make it sound really sentimental?" - the Pixx - “Dance and Walk models a creepy, stream of consciousness vibe that won’t sound quite so catchy at art openings.

It was so sad that they didn't let you play Munchausen on Sunday! On the bright side- I've found out your Super Subway Comedian song is coming out at the end of the month! Yay for that! xx
