Reviews

This quartet crackle with that special something that separates gifted songwriters from second-rate plagiarists.
(Kerrang! March 2005)

A commercially viable clash of contagious choruses, gargantuan hooks, accessible vocals and heart-warming harmonies.
(Metal Hammer April 2005)

Full of sparkling melodies, biting riffs and harmonised vocals that makes for an instantly memorable listen.
[Big Cheese April 2005]
