“Nothing short of a huge achievement”

“And my god, what joyous, mental bedlam they created. Their deathcore gypsy style was an exquisite fit for the crowd and the reaction was immense.”

“You'll likely find them beneath bridges burning violins and causing jelly wrestling mayhem.”

“Had Frank Zappa jumped aboard the gypsy bandwagon he might have made music something like Melbourne’s Barons of Tang.”

John Shand - Sydney Morning Herald

“ It's wrestling on the floor of the dingy pub shirtless and feeling like shit but wanting to keep the party going and finding ways to do it.”

“Tracks like Blood Wedding and Tango for Billy grow to merciless speeds, but the crowd will not give in. This gypsy-jazz-punk band is theirs, and shall be enjoyed to the last tantalizing drop.”

“ Think a Frankenstein's monster of traditional Irish, Jewish, Polish and Russian folk, polka and zydeco all mashed up together with a slamming drill seargent punk brutality.”

“The Barons of Tang are a music storm in a bottle if ever I saw one; a band with more pure energy and excitement than a horny cheerleading team.”

“The Barons greeted the stage with their signature enthusiasm and energetic flair. The crowd was mesmerized by their tight rhythmic sound that had even the harshest of critics tapping away to their tunes.”
