"Hogy milyen is a Trousers? Tökös, herefojtó retró rakenroll ez, pont olyan, amilyet szeretünk, karcos, hasító, garázsból pattintott, direkt lepukkant, férfias, jó kiállású, mely az elmúlt négy évtized gitárzenéjének - úgymint Kinks, a Led Zep, Pistols, Oasis, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, White Stripes és még sokan mások - metszéspontjában áll.
