"From the moment first band Penny Blacks come on stage, The Caves audience somehow swells instantly and by the time the first song is over there’s a hefty crowd looking on. Coming over with more style and charisma than really should be legally allowed in such a confined space, the Blacks kick the evening off in fine style. Like the bastard sons of The Kinks and The Stones, and with the tunes to match, Penny Blacks have an assured swagger that’s infectious and technically impressive in equal measure."
-The Skinny Magazine 30th Jan 2007
"Has XFM discovered the next view?"
-Martin Bate XFM
"I don't know much of there back story, but who cares when you just write really, really good tunes!"
-Martin Bate XFM
"Prior to this evening’s second twenty-minute set, I was enlightened by fanatic followers of our second band about the glamorous future that lay ahead for Edinburgh’s Penny Blacks. This was in fact entirely justified too."
-Andrew Burns T Break 2008
"The catchy guitar-licks and rapid drumming proved that it may only be a matter of time before the charismatic Penny Blacks are showcasing their stylish pop-rock on a larger stage."

FRIDAY 6th JUNE IS THE LAST AMPBOX!! yep, its almost over.
we've played a lot of different takes on dance music over the months, but for the last one we wanted to book straight up party DJs that we knew would have the place jumping. we've been thinking about it a long time and done just that-
* ZOMBIE DISCO SQUAD (Get Rude, London) * PRO-VINYLIST-KARIM (Rub-A-Dub, Glasgow) * JOHN M. J. FARRUGIA (Big Toes HiFi, Edinburgh)
Expect Baltimore Club, Ballie Funk, Hip-Hop, Bassline, Dancehall, Booty Bass, Electro Crunk, Ghetto Gutter House and other made up genres; and if all this isn't enough we're rolling in the Big Toes, 15k, badboy sound system for the occasion. If you've been down before you'll know what to expect, if not, come before you miss the chance. This is going to be one mother of a party.
there is no band in the whole world worth bumping up above rem. REM are the finest band in all the land, feel lucky to lie beside them in my friends. xx
