"Penny Bayonet’s powerful vocals drive the band’s sound, underpinned by a tight disco-punk stomp, that draws equally on fuzzy, eccentric garage rock." - Rock Sound
"the ability to write songs that make you want to shimmy your ass, wave your fists and shake your head like a rabid Chihuahua fresh out of a washing machine." - Kerrang!
"UK ladies with pipes are old news, but Penny Bayonet is no Adele. Her shouting and wailing has a depth even Beth Ditto can’t beat. Backed by an all-out rocknroll band, Sixty Watt Bayonets are intense to the point of exhausting." - www.venuszine.com

i saw you at reading and thought you were beautiful. i meant to come and see you at the rising sun a few weeks back but was caught up. im a photographer there.
And cheers weve only sent it to a few reviewers as yet (apparently thers gonna be a few more reviews up in the next week or so on various sites) ive just read your latest...very good stuff (Heart Wont Rest is my second fave track on the EP after Teenage Lovers)
All were trying to do is get some peoples attention so when we do release the EP hopefully it will be easy to get it press.
Yea were really looking forward to 19th (hopefully we will impress Sid enough for him to commission a Bayonetts/Rivals split single....how punk would that be lol)
