    The vocalist is Ian Curtis reborn, and sounds like sounds like Irish Peter Steele when he speaks. Quality sound from the band as well- look forward to hearing more!

    These guys are such a special gift to the music world. It's lovely to have that feeling of excitement about a band - I haven't had it for years. Cracking performance. Well done to all involved. Band of the decade, by a country mile.

    John really does like these guys. He definitely turned me onto them. Dynamite sound. Really tight. Great drummer. Plus they seem like such nice lads. And suspiciously handsome, too. I'd like to see them tour with Parquet Courts. Methinks that would be an amazing show. Good stuff right here.
