PRESS REVIEWS FOR SECRET RULER OF THE WORLD
“poised between light and dark, like the sweet sting of velvet nettles –three stars” Uncut
“Secret Ruler of The Word is a real find. Deserves to take pride of place in anyone's Best Of lists at the end of the year, it simply is that good.” Comes with a smile
“echoes disparate bedfellows such as Gram parsons and Elvis Costello - four stars” Classic Rock magazine
“It's not an overstatement to say it's up there with Ryan Adams' "Heartbreaker". Believe me, you need to hear this album.” Whisperinandhollerin
“If heartbreak has ever before been melded into such an intriguing, downright splendid attraction then I’d be at pains to believe it, for this is an absolute treasure of originality.” Logo magazine
“Eleven songs that we guarantee will strike you dumb. As sweetly stinging as you could ever imagine an album could be.” Losing Today
“a real talent for songwriting plus some wonderful darker moments that you can't help but fall in love with - Manchester's answer to Gram Parsons” Maverick magazine
“Hill’s sound and lyrical twists encompass everyone from Jay Farrar to Morrissey - it’s country music with a dark, foreboding, sardonic heart but with glimmers of optimistic passion. Real enough to feel laden with an integrity that endures repeated listens.” Americana-uk
