Amazing, iconic and deserving of all the hyperbole in the whole fucking world. Now, some fucker sign them, yeah??- THE FLY @ The Great Escape Festival
Destined for arenas, the unknowns throw a party that is nothing short of legendary- ROCK SOUND MAGAZINE (10 out of 10 CAMDEN CRAWL review)
Mike loves the crowd, he hates them, he antagonises them, he embraces them. You can expect to be snogged by him, have drinks chucked at you, dived on, serenaded, cursed beseeched and wooed. It’s manic performance but you will not want to miss a minute – like standing next to a crate of fireworks wrapped in nitro-glycerine – you know you should move away, but you can’t help but stick around for the big bang-WHISPERINANDHOLLERIN.COM Stag and Dagger Review
Some were dragged on stage, some were frozen with fear, but all were entranced by the magic unfolding before them. It is evident that these boys bow down to no one- WWW.SUBBA-CULTCHA.COM

"How disgusting. More please!"-DROWNED IN SOUND
Mental, absolutely mental" - ARTROCKER
PiL fronted by Bad Brains legendry HR, or Suicide minus the white-boy rigidity. Its a panic attack of sound, a squall of feedback, a slow tightening of a fist around the throat" - DROWNED IN SOUND
"Each song simultaneously surges like a powerful narcotic, yet shudders with the paranoia of a fast-approaching dawn comedown. A strobe-lit head-f*ck, forceful and unforgettable." - KERRANG! KKKK live review, Dublin Castle
"A thrilling electro-rave-punk amalgamation. Like Rudolph Nureyev trapped in the body of Amir Khan, frontman Mike Title swirls and shakes, bobs and weaves, rips a grass skirt off a stunned onlooker and attempts to wear all the audiences hats at once. Special."- DrownedInSound LoveBox Festival review,
"Like a Sham 69 show if everyone was on ecstasy - or maybe John Lydon attempting P-Funk? Either way: totally punk rock." - CLASSIC ROCK, Buffalo Bar
"An underdog memorandum of intent... In equal parts, wide eyed for the bright lights of the city and thoroughly fucked off."

As soon as you play anywhere near Somerset (Bristol would be great, thanks; and soon, preferably) I, and an army of Dead-Kids-supporting youths, will descend upon the gig and attempt to re-create the magic of Glastonbury.
