"The Druid band from Hell kicks arse" - Ectospazz.

"Alien Stash Tin are one of those gold nuggets of a band, in a sense that they refuse to put themselves, or be put into a box" - Ian Bartlett

"This album is very very good. It is unique. It is obviously the result of a lot of intense work. If all musicians could produce an album of this quality in their lifetime, they would die happy. Off it goes, straight into the Bristol Rocks top 10, well done AST!" Kevin (BristolRocks.co.uk)

"I proudly present Alien Stash Tin a band that have been knocking around since 2002 and have slowly but surely honed their craft until BINGO a CD that is full of great rock songs with hooks that just won't go away!" - Constable Napweed (Progressiveears.com)

"Listening to this album is great its like time traveling snatching these rock gods and transporting them to now, depriving the sixties and seventies of something great but hey it's 2007 our need is greater, its like a piece of the past.." - Lynnie (Livingston, Scotland)

"Their performance hit the right spots not through virtuosity but with the knowledge that music is the space between the notes, a mature restraint drove their sound, lending itself well to the oppressive “I'm Watching You”, which built up like a tribal beat, musically demonic" -Quote from the review of the Anti-War Benefit Gig, 4th May 2007. James Hollingsworth.

"...they quickly got into their stride, reminiscent of Dumpy's Rusty Nuts, Hawkwind, Santana, Gong's Flying Teapots and Cream, with twin-lead guitars and drawled bluesy-rock harmonies." - Quote from the review of the Anti-War Benefit Gig, 4th May 2007. James Hollingsworth.

"We've been wearing out their latest CD, buy a copy and we bet you will too!" - BILL MACKECHNIE - Anubis Spire guitarist.

"I wouldn't usually gravitate towards your sort of music, but I was fascinated by your skill. " - anon
