“Impressive…..Punk infused white noise collides with Barrettesque schizophrenia”Drowned In Sound

“A band for the connoisseur” Daily Mirror

“This single is officially evil…….a full-throttle garage-punk number, barely observing the laws of logic in its mission to derange your mind….” * * * * Artrocker (on Real Friends)

“The sonic attack of At The Drive-In…If one is to delve a little deeper with something of substance, something dignified,you can find the likes of London’s Arrows of Love” * * * *Rock Feedback

Frazer King

Tuesday, July 5th, 2011

Manchester’s Frazer King ( 2 parts gang, 3 parts band and a dash of spirit(s) )…..

‘For the uninitiated, Frazer King look like a right rabble, so gloriously out of step with everything else going on today, their mob-mentality pitched somewhere between the right side of boisterous and the wrong side of unruly. Their sound is almost impossible to label, taking in a Pogues-like mix of disarray and beauty, a Shack-esque ear for melody and a Bad Seeds intensity (with some added vigorous skiffle for good measure). Add to the mix three fantastic, distinctive voices and the result is the best new band in Manchester at the moment. Someone, surely, will sign them soon’. (Shaun Curran – City Life 2011)

So far this year the band have played numerous shows at SXSW being described as “one of the best live acts at SXSW”
Primavera festival was a crazed success with hundreds of people trying to cram into the tiny tent they were playing at culminating in security arresting Clare for knocking someone out with her bass.

The Revolutionary Spirit

Tuesday, May 31st, 2011

Riding on waves of gloomy synths and guitars delayed into the next dimension, this 4-piece from Wrexham deliver doom-ridden space-rock with a passion, instantly calling to mind influences from fellow Northerner souls of yore The Verve. …. ..DON’T DIE WONDERING.. …. There is more reverb-laden space here than in the Sci Fi section of your local Blockbuster but, importantly, there is also a human spirit in there… deep in there… drawing us inexorably towards the heart of the song….. This recalls Spiritualized, early Verve with the storms of guitar stripped out, or less obliquely and with more poetry in their hearts.
