"...reek of impending success" – The List
"...lusty vocals, raucous guitars, and a chorus big enough to sink the Titanic" – Is This Music?
"... winning plaudits everywhere from the Mancs to the Yanks."- Martin Bates XFM Scotland
"...smashes its way into your heart with a wall to wall bluster of guitars…band with an exciting future." – Jon Ashley ManchesterMusic.co.uk
"...a rousing bout of choppy, hooklined strongly fuzzed indie rock akin to something like The Enemy but refreshingly less polished. Excellent." – ITC Demo Review Panel
"Post-punk with an energetic twist and a knack for a melody. Theirs is a sound which is trying to resolve the conflict between the obscure and the commercial, and it's a musical tightrope they tread well." - Heather Crumley ScotCampus
"...this band is fast becoming the talk of the town." – Black Spring
"It’s perhaps fair to say that the first two bands could learn a lot form the fusiliers… Each individual in the band carried a great deal of confidence, which is only right for a band as able as they are. The crowd - quite rightly - received the band with great applause. Undoubtedly destined for better things." - bluesbunny.co.uk
