Ste McCabe 'Up front and confrontational about pretty much everything. Around here we love him! North West of England ranting queercore lo-fi wired-up punk rock. He sounds like Holly Johnson fronting a fractured angry Buzzcocks via raw Carter USM and dare you listen to something new or sit and.... One skinny looking man, one edgy scratchy skinny guitar, a fractured drum machine and a barbed line in relentless baiting just about everyone with his defiant lyrical feistiness...Proper raw punk rock laced with positive anger and a welcoming smile and a little more than scratching each other’s eyes out.' (Organ)

On the esteemed Canadian indie label Mint Records, draws inspiration from music's most random corners: the album has moments of dreamy noise, circus freak dance, heartbreaking country ballads with screeching metal guitar solos, lovely harmonies, psychedelic drones, and straight up pop/rock numbers.'
