THUMPERMONKEY
"...their often bewildering mastery of everything -- King Crimson like angularity and dissonance, the blissful pop dynamics of the Cardiacs, and the esoteric post-hardcore audacity of Shudder to Think -- amount to a sustained victory for intuitive cross-pollination...most importantly, Thumpermonkey's music is ridiculously exciting; the blazing light of punk rock filtered skilfully through the cerebral prog prism..."

THE FIERCE AND THE DEAD
"..post-hardcore bass tone; pulsing motorik drums; chiming, interlocking guitars somewhere between Afrobeat and Robert Fripp (and) shockingly brutal bursts of math-metal"

MAYORS OF MIYAZAKI
"London three-piece Mayors of Miyazaki have made an album that's as cathartic as it is melodic. It's a flag-waving effort that summons power from its discord, blasts out audacious riffs without being self-indulgent and describes the mundane with a lyrical grace that elevates boredom to an aspirational state of being"
