Irregular shows and no product to rely on meant that a live performance by them was your only chance for hearing their angular-yet beautiful sounds, and it was like striking gold - better jump on it because you never know when it might happen again." - PLAYING IN FOG

".... the bare, unapologetic sum of Sir Plus' guitar, Miss Minor's drums, and MOGGS' understated vocals are enough to make any scenester take a break from chanting his area code long enough to get freaky."

"The duo is so analog-fixated that they went all the way to London's Abbey Road studios, the Mecca of anachronistic recording devices, to make sure The White Belt was as pristine as possible; digitally unsullied, that is." - SPIN
