    Reviews for 'Romantic Bastards', Spiders debut album

    "Undoubtedly, the most 'un-Irish' sounding breakthrough act of 2007 and one of the best to boot...Spiders have recently delivered debut album 'Romantic Bastards', its a welcome fresh twist on classic elements of Funk, Kraut, and Electro, sporting some distinct influences but very much doing its own thing, driven by sharp, witty songwriting and flawless musicianship. A serious proposition on stage, expect this slick machine to raise the ****in' roof in the coming year." - ES, Connected Magazine, Top 50, Dec 2007

    "Romantic Bastards,eh? The possibilities are endless in fact, this is a Dublin band no one has never heard of. Track 3 'Cheap Thrlls' is flippin deadly!" - Kaka, Mongrel Magazine, Dec 2007

    "An indie-dance crossover in the vein of Hybrasil, Star Little Thing or !!! (Chk,chk,chk), Dublin's Spiders lay down some great foot-tapping beats, keyboards melodies and funk guitar licks on their debut Long-Player, while quirky vocal samples also add to the interest. There's no denying the quality of the material on offer here. [8.5/10]" - Hot Press, December 2007 issue

    "Spiders have managed to craft a deliciously eclectic, collection of slick, funk-driven songs with Romantic Bastards. From the Shaft-like danceable opener of So, to the T-Rex-meets-Queens of the Stone Age-style glam-rocking Under the Mirrorball, lead singer and songwriter Fran Power demonstrates an impressive turn in writing and genre-merging arrangements. The warped, beefy soul of Bad Dreams, woozy, offbeat velocity of Hysteric and quirky, Gomez-aping riffage of Stereodream are all equally stirring, while sole female member Michelle Considine gets a look-in, too, on slinky electro-lounge closer Machinations. The obvious stand-out here, however, is the edgy Cheap Thrills, a track that twists and swerves with the momentum of a Starsky and Hutch car-chase." - [***/5] Lauren Murphy, Entertainment.ie
