Tweak Bird Press

"To see Tweak Bird live is to know how Richard Dreyfuss felt when he witnessed the alien mothership in Close Encounters: part of your body just can't help but kneel" - Artrocker

** 7 December 2010 **

“I bloody love this album, and so should you. It's just poppy enough to sing along to, just metal enough to headbang to, and just jazzy enough to confound all your expectations without even trying.” – Contact Music

“With a production – and guitar tone in particular – that takes absolutely no prisoners, by fourteen seconds into opener The Future the duo have well and truly got you pinned to the wall.” – The Skinny

“To walk the line between ‘endearing’ and ‘heavy as shit’ is a brave choice, and it’s a pleasure to hear Tweak Bird do so without sounding like a complete piss-take. Happy, heavy and a hell of a lot of fun.” – Shout 4 Music
