What The US media had to say:

“…the white-blues firefight of the MC5 and the spasmodic pure-R&B tensions of the original Seventies lineup of Britain’s Dr. Feelgood… …noise, propulsion, raw-roots joy.” – David Fricke/Rolling Stone

“…the five-piece group threw down the goods, simple, smokin’, and directly in the crowd’s face… They lay down a let-it-rip set that never flags.” – Chris Morris/Variety.com

“These high energy Londoners put on a show that’s one part history of rock, from Little Richard to The Ramones, and one part fire-and-brimstone sermon….tight and loud.” – Spin.com

“Their music doesn’t feel constrained by category, it just makes you stand up and listen before knocking you off your feet.” – Brooklyn Vegan
