bifta23 Posted June 6, 2004 Report Share Posted June 6, 2004 press release....Howdy,Festivals...GO NORTH 10th June- Kef's, Aberdeen @ MidnightHIGHLAND FESTIVAL 11th June- Royal Highland Hotel, Inverness @ 7-12Check out RAAR's cut of 'Blue Genes' on the new Musicweek 'Go North' CD or the single that's been receiving some mighty reviews in this months/ last months press.......RAAR Longhorn/ Wolverine RAAR have fashioned themselves into a wilful oddity. Here youll find a freaky and camp, glam-punk stomp that sounds like Queen jamming with Motorhead while Sparks compose evil operas over the top. Which is something you dont hear every day. Cant wait to see em on Top of the Pops, if theres any justice in the universeKKKK Kerrang May 1 st 2004This is blistering, meaty swamp rock made by a bunch of crazies just out from the black Isle funny farm in Scotland. Longhorn is a 3.12 minutes ejaculation of grinding, pounding guitars with vocals delivered from the bowels of Satan and nonsensical lyrics. The Cramps meet Motorhead at Art College and start up a poetry club. Hard, fast, dark and dirty. No wonder they call them RAAR! 4/5 in Sleaze June 2004Glam histrionics? Handlebar taches? A Poullain-Hawkins spinoff this is not. Comes complete with self explanatory comic book 1 of 6 singles Dazed and approved in Dazed and Confused June 2004Cool as fuck! depicting the legend of the coming of RAAR in graphic detail 7/10 in Rocksound June 2004 Equally daft, but also great, are RAAR, the Black Isles answer to Tygers of Pan Tang (ask yer metalhead granny) Longhorn is Diamondhead in furry breeks, and are therefore great. Death to false metal 4/5 in The List Magazine, 29-13 May 2004 Tremendous stuff, hints of 80s heavy metal and Frank Zappa Vic Galloway Radio 1 May 2004 Top stuff a magnificent record. one of the names of the last 12 months Bruce Dickinson BBC 6 April & May 2004Soon to be huge Sunday Herald 23 rd May 2004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
