"WATCH IN VAGUE DISBELIEF AS THESE STICK LIKE MEN WRESTLE THEIR INEXPENSIVE INSTRUMENTS TO PRODUCE A HIDEOUS TORRENT OF BADLY PLAYED ROCK N.. ROLL PARTY NUMBERS."
Recent Live review(Go Team , Electrowerkz):"Armed with inexpensive instruments, including boot sale trumpets and PE teacher whistles, The Sticks scratch and screech at their instruments like a cat trying to grab a ball of yarn in a tumble dryer.
But amidst the bells and whistles, all eyes rest on a single
weather-beaten drumkit. Both members share cutlery duties on stage, whipping up the frenzied pace of the set with astoundingingly violent, original and almost melodic rhythms.
The Sticks are a weird, wonderful creature that hops maniacally between the alien dimensions of classic honky tonk and Husker Du garage rockiness. And their drumming is so good, they're almost a circus act. Fabulous stuff.">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

As always a double A
Monster Maker -
Wailing psychedelic guitar versus smoked-out keys... man versus monster... the big final battle that sees blood shed on the desk, the eyeball to eyeball... amped up, beefed up sonic attack sees the victor stood cold sweats. Blooded, victorious and damned.
I Think You Two Should Leave -
Funk, as imagined by Tortoise taking on The James Gang... white boy distorted funk meets gonzoid electronics, all shot in Super 8 with Bruce Lee.
