SINGLE OF THE MONTH! - Masters of noise return with more high adrenalized skronked-ness, like a mess wife swap party with part chimp, icarus line, these arms are snakes, mars volta and the sound of someone’s brain being smashed into tiny pieces, over and over again… genius!- A SUBBA-CULTCHA

91% "Thug Poetry" is destined for greatness. - altsounds.com

"Weirdo rock from a leeds duo taking a cue or two from fellow townsfolk That Fucking Tank but twisting a formula of exuberant brutality with neat proggy-toned sidesteps, this mini album is a headfuck like few others on these pages, impressively subversive." - Rocksound Magazine

"You can imagine their live shows to be a tangle of noise and righteous poses" - Rock a Rolla Magazine
