The Nightingales - they're back and they're marvellous - MARC RILEY/BBC 6 MUSIC
Nightingales are unreal. The level of playing and songwriting after their post-punk hiatus is unparalled by any of their generational comeback cohorts - TERRE T/WFMU
With The Fall getting Lifetime Achievement awards and Gang Of Four canonised it is long past time the wayward genius of Robert Lloyd and his cohorts was recognised - RECORD COLLECTOR
Songs tumble past, pasty faced and brimming with mothers pride, as fresh and corruptible now as when they started twenty years back. Age has neither dimmed their rage or diminished their satire - PLAN B
The Nightingales in Southend on Friday (May 06) jetted in to my top ten gigs of all time - PHILL JUPITUS/BBC 6 MUSIC
Forget all these NME Band of the Week types, who make out they don't care, they won't compromise, etc, whilst wearing the same indie uniform and churning out the same tired old riffs. They don't need your attention. The Nightingales do. Because rock 'n' roll rarely gets as uncompromising as this. - PLASTELIN
The Nightingales are morally sound, cynically sweet, disturbingly comedic. All carelessly and unconsciously cool, Nightingales are grown men with something to say and sparse, post-punk soundtracks to back them. So, back them - UNPEELED
Rock & Roll at its best - SUDDEUTSCHE ZEITUNG
Consistently excellent, the Nightingales are back, as ferociously sardonic as ever. Nice to see them still mad, still funny, still wrecking the furniture after all these years. - DUSTED
Brilliantly awkward Brummie buggers, the most fabulous melange of indie, punk, rockabilly, country and (weirdly) British folk you could imagine - WHISPERIN' AND HOLLERIN'
