"A FAST ONE ON JULIAN substitutes the conventional guitar, bass and drum dynamic for a more stripped down yet progressive electronic aura that co-exists with squeezebox joy. Please Dept. waste no time in getting straight to their own self-deprecating brand of educated pop.... In a borough brimming with first rate talent, Please Dept. are aiming to be the next big thing." - Treblezine
"The double keyboard assault I was ready for, the dueling drum volleys I most certainly was not. On record the songs are bizarre and theatrical, but in concert they were total synth punk." - Merry Swankster
"A FAST ONE ON JULIAN is an eleven-song beckon to the dance floor ...replete with shimmer, swagger and charm to spare. It's pop that pops, with spiky electronic peaks, bursts of caffeinated bounce and manic keyboard flourishes."
