Sounds Like"The new Cougars EP sees them take a giant leap forward and show what urching pop can do, uplifting, sweet, tangled, harmonic, fun to live by. They pick up the libertines batton and bring it back to life, look over your shoulder Pete, Urchin pop is on its way" - FMS Promotions

"The Cougars would potentially wake up the dead and get them to dance!"
- Hope and Anchor

"Stars Of The Future"
- In The City Festival

"Great promise and uncomplicated fun. London A&R men should track these guys down"
- In The City Festival Review

"Upbeat tempo'ed indie ska punk band. Obvious comparisons and similarities with The Libertines having it large, its charming and high tempo 100mph fun".
- Cross Kings London Review

"The Cougars have been making quite a racket for a while now. While clearly there is a love affair with the likes of the libs, not so subtle from The Kinks and The Buzzcocks help make them a solidly aggressive and tuneful 4 piece - Barfly

"The best new band of 2007 with their fusion of punk/pop and a stage presence that keeps the audience memorised throughout. These guys deserve to be MASSIVE! Well worth watching live! " - Robmacca

"These lads are out to make sure people have a fun time, and they sound like the kind of band who could manage that. Their music is simple, it's crass and it's fun. And it wouldn't hurt to join in once in a while. - My Space Band Reviews

On the edge of the city, in the shadow cast by Granada TV studios and the music legacy of Tony Wilson, stands the Kings Arms, a hidden gem of a music venue. We stepped out early Sunday evening to sample one of the many fringe events tha

The new cougars EP sees them take a giant leap forward and show what urching pop can do, uplifting, sweet, tangled, harmonic, fun to live by. They pick up the libertines batton and bring it back to life, look over your shoulder Pete, Urchin pop is on its way.
