    Their cover of Got Love If You Want It is a raw, gritty highlight. [Apr 2020, p.96]

    The Chatham Singers furnish these 12 tracks of street crackle and pop with skeletal verve. [Jun 2020, p.94]

    There isn't anything startlingly new or different about Kings of the Medway Delta that will surprise fans, but in the great tradition of John Lee Hooker, Billy Childish is someone who can keep on doing the same thing while investing it with enough power, intensity, and honesty that it never loses its ability to drawn the listener in. If you've ever wished that your old Little Walter records didn't sound so slick, Kings of the Medway Delta should be just the thing for you.
