REVIEWS:
"This really is corking…the songs exude a gawky yet
insouciant menace…in all, a top-notch effort, to which
the only fitting response is, quite simply, 'ace'."
TASTY Fanzine

"Blue's vocals are vaguely reminiscent of Kim Gordon
if she hailed from the Wirral while Hell's git lines
give songs like 'I'm Tired' a totally original filthy
edge." JOY Fanzine

"A delicious slab of nasty rock scuzz... it's the
sound of motorcycle crashes, of bruised eyes, of
existential rage and a yearning for glamour in a grey
world." Kitten Painting Fanzine

"I'm already hooked on [Dirtblonde] with no looking
back. This is quite simply because 'The Hangmen' is
ace... their music is unnerving and honest in its
construction, It's also really rather excellent."
Shadowplay Fanzine

"It is quite catchy in a kinda dark sort of way...now
imagine what Martin Hannet could do with this lot if
he was still around." Everything You Hate Fanzine

"A superb bit of paranoid art-rock fuzz that realises
the potential shown in their scatty early
demo's...This single is wonderfully produced, raw,
energetic and promises hangmen at your door coming to
get you. Shades of Jesus & Mary Chain, early Nirvana,
Mclusky." I Shot The Deputy
