"'You Stole The Sun' is just one of about, ooh, four deadly cannonballs in their Clash-bolstered armoury. Expect big things." - Jamie Fullerton, NME

"The comparisons to Arctic Monkeys and classic ska/punk bands like The Jam and The Specials are certainly there for all to see in their punky guitar riffs, poetic lyrics and lovable rogue charisma." - Manchester Evening News

"Over at Dry Bar there's beer dripping from the ceiling, roadies hanging onto the speakers for dear life, twice as many people as there should be rammed into the main stage area and a near riot going off both on stage and on. One buzz band that draws devoted fans, flustered A&R men and curious gig-goers, and for Twisted Wheel this is only the start of their weekend." - XFM

"Their chaotic live show has become one of the most thrilling around." - Artrocker

"Making waves in Manchester, and it's not hard to hear why. 'Strife' is our pick just now. Yet another reminder that we've moved beyond the Coldplay generation of platitudinous bands; how nice it is that the words matter again (and yes, there's a whole essay to be had here on the influence of hip hop, and how Alex Turner once wanted to be a rapper and.. well, yadda yadda yadda...)." - Observer Music Monthly

"Named 3 in '10 Hopes Of The Near Future'" - NME (Reading 2008 review)

"Twisted Wheel are one of Britain's greatest musical hopes." - Manchester Evening News

   About TWISTED WHEEL
Twisted Wheel release the You Stole The Sun EP on July 28th on limited numbered 7" vinyl and as a download. It comes on the back of several months of relentless touring across the UK and in the wake of the release of their now sold out limited edition debut 7" She's A Weapon, which picked up acclaim from the likes of Zane Lowe ("Hottest Record In The World"), NME & Q amongst others. The EP features a new mix of demo You Stole The Sun, alongside a live version of Let Them Have It All, and the original demo versions of Racket & What's Your Name.
