German CD review Venus Hill Whatever
Www.venushill.net - CD

Der selbstproduzierte Erstling der elf Holländer liefert uns Crossover-Ska, der endlich einmal wieder beweist, daß es dieses Genre zurecht gibt. Hier wird so fröhlich zwischen Ska, Metal, Rock, Reggae gependelt, daß dem Hörer nur Spaß haben übrigbleibt. Markenzeichen der Band sind neben den hervorragenden Bläsern die drei (!) Sängerinnen, die sich mal abwechseln, mal in feinster Ska-Rocksteady-Tradition dreistimmige Refrains singen, die nicht mehr aus dem Kopf zu kriegen sind. Wer die Chance hat, diese Band einmal live zu sehen, sollte dies unbedingt tun. Einziger Wermutstropfen ist hier die geldbedingte Kürze der CD, denn es befinden sich lediglich acht Stücke darauf. Aber es sollte sich mit einem so überzeugenden Debut schnell ein Label gefunden haben. Nicht verbiegen lassen!

OUr first gig with Brian was a great succes. The audience was crowdsurfing and we we had a great night.

We found Sound engineer Bill !! Norman was our sound engineer since april 2000 until oktober 2000. We've had lot's of great experiences with him.
