Sounds Like"...Sellotape the band do that Rough Trade circa 1978 Ladbroke Grove squat rock shamble. Making their live debut, they go hell for, um, leather with an energetic and unstudied bounce through the DIY post-punk messthetics handbook. Think Kleenex or The Delta Five, with an in-built ramshackleness tempered by a vocal style betraying a smidgen of Siouxsie Sioux..."

Neil Cooper, the list issue 579, p.58 (excerpt from review of our first gig 14.06.07, cabaret voltaire, edinburgh)

Why thank you very much vikisellotape, I'm glad you like it. I certainly do enjoy sellotape - the post-punk band I wish I'd had (instead of the one I did)! I was thinking about seeing the Vaselines on the 12th. But, having never had the pleasure of seeing you live - fuck that, sellotape it is.
