Catsandcatsandcats:"A band clearly forging their own path, regardless of scenes or trends. Intense, melodic, out-there. Praise worthy indeed. Excellent work" 4/5 Playmusic Magazine March 2007

"An album many bands could only dream of making" In it for the money zine

"Sweet, sweet uplifting music" Organ Magazine's Album of the week review

"a listen that will burst your capillaries, such is the excitement generated by this five piece" 9/10 Powpowpow.com

"sure to be raved as a classic of its kind for years to come" drownedinsound.com

"It’s the polar opposite of pub-rock. Stop/start half-melodies are scattered liberally throughout the album, each song sounds like a dozen, one idea starts to make sense, before seemingly at random transforming into the next in a split second." 7/10 Neu Magazine


Edgar Prais:

"Freakish Aberdeen-based trio, mixing general shouty calamity with an alt rock guitar sound à la Modest Mouse."The List

"Brilliant, boisterous Aberdeen trio who do jerky, shouty indie-pop to perfection on Sloppy Drunk Boys. Could easily have The View’s terrace appeal." Teletext

Over The Wall:

Over The Wall are Gav Prentice of old steel town Bathgate and Ben Hillman of old seaside town Bridlington, who met in Glasgow in 2002, fell in love (not necessarily with each other, though that too actually) and have enjoyed each other's company ever since. They inflict their relationship on others through the medium of euphoric pop music using keyboards, laptops, guitars, mandolins, trumpets, hurdy gurdys and kazoos. Over The Wall was a night in the old Stereo which became a band in your bedroom around 2006. They've tried their hardest on stage on various occasions around the country, most notably at T in the Park in 2007, and have recieved small amounts of coverage on Radio 1 and Xfm. An EP is planned for a July 2008 release on Motive Sounds Recordings. They, and some others, genuinely love their music. They are not, however, cool."
