EP Reviews
"They could be just what the indie scene needs."
GOD IS IN THE TV
"Neurotic and very on-edge, this is a driven and determined release from a dark lot with some strange ideas. I liked it on first listen."
WHISPERIN’ AND HOLLERIN’
"Sounding ambitious and anthemic enough to suggest themselves as a band capable of big things."
UKMUSIC
"With the lusty, androgynous melodic bent of Suede at their most cocksure, a chorus Morrissey would be envious of and some mightily impressive riffing...these boys will go far, and deservedly so!"
SUBBA-CULTCHA
"Vivid, passionate and oh so very dark, the four tracks on this EP demonstrate GLYFAL’s great knack for shadowy, witty, but often beautiful lyricism."
NOIZE MAKES ENEMIES
"By the end of the EP, when they prove they can do acoustic tenderness as well, there’s no doubt that GLYFAL are completely brilliant."

Live Reviews
"These chaps have "next", "big" and "thing" transmitting from their teeth like some kind of coded alien message... what GLYFAL have in their DNA is ideas - and they shoot ’em out like fireworks."

Biography
A man sits in front of the TV with his wife, despite the fact she hasn’t paid him (or the TV) any attention in days.
Two lovers who are not in love hit the town for yet another night out.
A fire fails to rid a community of the evil that lurks amongst them.
A dead-end job is not the only thing imprisoning a bored shop girl.
Onstage, God Love You For A Liar’s lyrical contradictions are delivered with the kind of panache and zeal normally associated with more recognised and established artists. Provincial town boredom and dead-end jobs provide a prosaic backdrop for their tales of love, death, obsession and alienation.
Owing as much to Kate Bush as they do to The Smiths, God Love You For A Liar fluctuate between soaring pop melodies, calloused punk riffs, and moments of genuine drama and passion – all delivered with the collective debonair strut of a band on the verge of great things.

It Happened One Night
"We’ll get blind drunk and roll on the floor. We’ll speak in rhyme and witty metaphor." - Love Like We’re Lovers
