Sounds Like
"blindingly impressive, cultured, quiet / loud, complex / straightforward, intelligent rock - a sound that doesn’t really seek to be like anything else at all." - manchestermusic.co.uk
"the talent and cohesiveness is just plain jaw-dropping...Delightful basslines and riffs combine with snth created noise and kickass drumbeats all amidst any of 4 vocalists letting loose, making for some splendid sounds indeed." - Second City
"they seem to draw from an eclectic range of influences and construct them together like a puzzle...frenetic punk can lead into slow, atmospheric post-rock or just as likely volte face into hook-laden electronica rhythms; that they can hold all these ideas together without sounding overly jerky or schizophrenic is nothing short of impressive." - God is in the TV
"a heady mix of hardcore, electronics and post-punk rhythms, vicious, visceral and booming with righteous punk anger." -
