"Insanely brilliant. 5/5"
- Teletext
"...summoning visions of Betty Page in
leopard-skin panties fighting off a bug-eyed
monster with a stiffy. Rise up and reject
conformity - follow The V.Cs like your life
depends on it."
- Artrocker
"...loose limbed surf rock with chewy keyboard, hollerin' vox and a touch of
David Lynchian spice. With added Theremin. Will Tarantino discover them for his
next film? Will Vince Ray design their t-shirts? All these things are quite
possible. And they have a tune about movie monster animator Ray Harryhausen.
That's classy."
- Smoking Beagle, Jan 2005
"Superheroes in a musical metropolis
populated by the corrupt and the crooked."
- The Fly
"...Hank Marvin has been put into a giant blender
with The B52's and the whole bloody mess turned
into soup and thrown and splattered against a
giant poster of 1960s Californian surf. Brilliant stuff."
- Manchester Music. 5/5
Over & out,
The V.Cs
