Performing their high energy original music the band have met with great enthusiasm from critics and fans alike:
''it's genuinely difficult to draw comparisons with other bands (and almost as challenging to define the genre of the band). I hear Hendrix-like guitar lines, Chic disco-rhythm parts and some Zeppelin in the overall passion and raw feel of the production. These guys are a genuinely exciting prospect!'' -Down The Front Magazine.
''All at the top of their game. A unique blend of excitement!'' -Rock Magazine
