HOT PRESS
"These are highly accesible, superbly structured songs played by a band
which has clearly been studying how to deploy catchy winding melodies" 8/10
NEWS OF THE WORLD
"This is not an album for chin-strokers. It's honest and un-pretentious,
13 high-energy, highly infectious songs, mostly tales of love, betrayal and drunken dates"
ROAD RECORDS
"The debut album from this new limerick based four piece outfit.
This is a very catchy slice of old style rock n roll sounding like some blend of
motown pop meets The Ramones.
Try to imagine Blondie singing on the famous Phil spector produced
Ramones album with much more added gritty pop elements.
A truly infectiously catchy debut record with plenty of three minute bubble gum hits
to keep both fans of sixties garage pop to seventies pop punk more than happy.
It's full of big rock fuzzed up guitar chords and some truly superb vocal
harmonies. Could be one of the underground hits of the summer".
ENTERTAINMENT.IE
"When all is said and done, though, We Should Be Dead aren't lying;
if nothing else, you'll want to dance your arse off to practically every song
on this fizzy, frothy gem of an album" 4/5
REDTRACKMUSIC.COM
"This two boy, two girl combo are a tight, cohesive unit who write excellent pop/ rock songs
brimming with attitude, hooks and most importantly these tunes extremely danceable! "
MP3HUGGER.COM / THE HYPE MACHINE
"Chugging chords, elastic beats and a sweet vocal (I'm hearing Tracyanne Campbell of Camera Obscura)
turns what could have been an admirable pastiche into something that could yet shatter a lot of hearts
(and not necessarily just the ones made of glass)."
IAN DEMPSEY, TODAY FM
"Great new sound for 2008"
DAN HEGARTY, 2FM
"Incredibly catchy"
FREQUENCY IRELAND
"The ressurected sounds and spirit of a lost generation" 10/10"

Marie Junior
Marie Junior started her life in the glitter of the music business working for Andrea Corr; she was her housemaid (bucket and mop!)
Her father John Hughes manages The Corrs.
Approximately six years ago she announced to her father her desire to be a singer - he ignored her…..
First lesson in the music business: Nobody wants you!
For some months she persisted and eventually he asked
“Why do you want to sing?”
“It makes me feel good” came her reply
“Right answer” she was on her way, but all would not be roses.
Her debut album was recorded but never released; her label in effect dropped her.
Considering her father owned the label we get an insight into the dark corridors of the music industry…..
Second lesson in the music business: Really nobody wants you!
With a little time and a lot of persistence Marie Junior has got a second chance, her album is due for release later this year. The first single is a pop classic from the 70’s called “Quick Joey Small” - it’s a jailbreak story and Marie Junior intends to run for her freedom into the arms of success
“Run Junior Run”
Its rather fun to leave comments, and its very wonderful getting them, plus we get to say Hi too new and old friends! So Hello my friend and have a wonderful week...
