Amsterdam Acoustics - Short Bursts
"Quiet Little Voices is a rousing, sinewy, post-punk romp that crashes its way towards a Wedding Present-style duelling guitars denouement." The Guardian
"They’ve already perfected a sound that sits between post-punk and pop, soaring choruses saved from over-sentimentality by stark, even bleak verses." The Independent '5 bands to watch
"Much like label mates Frightened Rabbit, WWJP are all about the rugged reality of love, confusion, and creating visual music. Their closed eyes and open hearts carry ‘Quiet Little Voices’ tonight - and might well carry it onto radio waves too" Artrocker
"Blistering post-punk anthems of the highest pedigree: powerful and tuneful in just the right measures, with lead singer Adam Thompson's understated vocals keeping proceedings in check just as they threaten to spiral out of control. It's a definite statement of intent.” Q Magazine
“Rocketeering knapsacks gain the stratosphere-tickling booster of an anthemic Clydeside chorus, and we have lift off” NME
“Indie-pop pickery with brazen aplomb” The List
"An impeccable grab bag of influences and a miraculously accessible romantic sensibility." Skinny
"Seething with a newfound intent, their crisp, flighty choruses and sure-footed narratives are bolder and more purposeful than ever before" Drowned in Sound

So, 'twas a sad day the day I installed my new car stereo. I had my new We Were Promised Jetpacks CD in my CD changer in the trunk, and it was not wired to connect to the new stereo. To make a long story short, my new awesome CD is stuck in my trunk. :(

Hey! my name is Megan & I am a Glasgow based photographer specialising in live music.
Some of my photographs have been published and exhibited, and I have photographed established bands over the past few years.
Whether you are looking for pictures from a show or for posters/ album artwork please feel free to give me a shout and go through some ideas.
I understand how difficult it can be to get your band established and the cost of doing so therefore I offer reasonable prices. I am available for shows in Glasgow and on location.
You have just been reviewed in Edition 45 of my music blog ' Mr Nixon's Music Class' at myspace.com/paulgarynixon Review will appear on Tuesday around Noon (CET) Thanks for the music.
