Press

“Fast-paced, ballsy.... altogether brilliant (about the Provinces EP)”

— Terry Muller, Cultura Press

“How these guys haven’t been snapped by a label yet I do not know! Turn it up to 11 and enjoy.”

— Stephen Allwright, Flying Flatcap

“The Provinces EP is full to the brim with reasons to get behind This Wicked Tongue.”

— Antony Lusmore, 7 Bit Arcade

“...a thrilling fiery sound rife with a deviously seductive persuasion and mischief... hard to see the band not finding a far reaching recognition and stature in the years ahead...”

— Pete Ringmaster, RingMaster Review website

“I'm so convinced by their awesome array of music that I might even walk to the Midlands just to catch a gig! That’s roughly 300 miles each way for those who don’t know.”

— Will Johnstone, New Hellfire Club Glasgow website

“....outstanding...extremely solid and talented...ready to be signed now... already the complete package. This Wicked Tongue are all about taking this seriously. When the labels come knocking I’m sure it won’t be long before we see them moving up the festival billing and headlining their own shows at the likes of London Brixton Academy and the London Roundhouse, and who knows what the future after that may bring?”

— Sara Russell-Clark, Music Trespass

“Awesomely shot video (about the video House)”

— Josh Leyland, Rock Transmission website

"Monster riffing... colossal... the full package - be there!"

— Kat Jackman, The Huffington Post

“must-hear... darkly playful and captivating”

— Amber OTM, Open 'til midnight

“Provinces.... hugely impressive... a definite must.”

— Rich Leigh, Alt-UK

“I made my way to the front, crouched down, set aperture and shutter speed and pointed the camera only to be immediately flattened by an extremely energetic fan who came flying from the crowd, strafed me and impacted right on the effect pedals.From this moment I knew immediately that it would be an awesome gig.”

— Pete Student, Loud Stuff

“...kicking through doors...worth the volume peak!”

— Delisha Saydee, Pretty Xcentric

“Truly brilliant!”

— Dannie Lu Carr, Wasted Poppy

“God exists - we have the proof: This Wicked Tongue.”

— Tim Bolitho-Jones, Punk Prospect

“I pressed play and was promptly smacked in the face by a massive, rockin' beast of an opening riff.... Provinces is a veritable treasure chest of surprises... by the end I'm leaping around my room as if MTV still played music videos and Grunge had never left. ”

— Eoin Boylan, Beardrock website

“Fun, loud.... impeccable!”

— Beki Kidwell, Green Man Festival review, More Than The Music

“Even the stage crew were rocking out - the crowd loved them... brilliant.”

— Callum Taylor, RoadRunner records weekly UK Showcase

“...worth getting excited about...”
