    Confrontational, clammy, brimming with confidence... ‘Royal Society’ is as majestic as its title implies.
  2. Tiny Mix Tapes

    This record is full of the illogical, instinctive, incomprehensible poetry that the BEST Rock & Roll lyrics are made of, and contains some of the most distinctive and indeed brilliant music of the last ten years/twenty five years/ever/let's get more carried away.

    These songs display such moustache-twirling camp that they exert a lively pull despite the undead atmospherics. [Dec 2004, p.136]

    This is an incredible record - there's nothing like these guys around at the moment. I can hear bits of David Bowie, Black Sabbath, System Of A Down, The Cramps, The Doors, Dead Kennedies, Nick Cave, Iggy Pop and much more. People tell me the live shows are unbelieveable but I haven't seen them yet. Can't wait though!!… Expand

    What a great follow-up to Hörse Of The Dög. They couldn't have got it much better!
