Here’s a few snipping from those kind press people who have said some kind words X

“Ploughing the kind of rough ‘n’ ready rock ‘n’ roll which made The Ramones or The Clash so beloved” (Clash Music, UK)

“Just pure, straight to the point rock and roll “ (Vulture Hound Magazine, UK)

“It’s a perfect mix of pop and punk; it’s lyrically very punk but with an infectious
rhythm that could make it the stuff of chart music” (Contact Music, UK)

“Looking for a tune to blow the Indie Disco apart (if you can find one nowadays)? Look no
further” (Artrocker, UK)

“A very bright future ahead” (Chris Hawkins, BBC 6Music, UK)

“A genuinely exciting young band” (Shout4music, UK)

“The EP’s three tracks are underpinned by a sense of urgency; they are fast, frantic and brimming over with exuberance” (Spindle Magazine, UK)

“China Rats, where have you been all my life? “ (Dingus, US)

“I liked that a lot (…)it’s very very good” (Fearne Cotton, BBC Radio 1)

“Glorious” (Tom Deacon, BBC Radio 1)
