"Their noise is remarkable as it is original: crazy melodies played at odd tempos with brass instruments held in the hands of what appear to be lunatics. Stig are the kind of band that the word cult was invented for. Weird, wonderful and Hardcore" [Kerrang]
"Crazy noise, granted, but nothing quite prepares for the flamenco-featuring random meandering, enthusiastically ploughing through unhinged rhythms, bewildering Henry Mancini-isms and Mclusky spikiness"
[Drowned In Sound]
"Stig rule. What an awesome band! Someone should knight Stig, just so's they can stick the sword in the Knight-ees FACE!" [Akira The Don]
"...Jesus Christ STIG is some fucked up shit... this is all over the place chaos!!! Samples, beats, brass, Hawaiian guitars, heavy guitars, random noise and tons of other shit I cant describe!! The pace is constantly changing ...crazy, crazy shit. Definitely very punk etho's in its approach: very free and experimental and quite obviously not giving a fuck what people think. At times theres a slow reggae feel, then its kind of big band music, then its totally fucked up noise, then even more fucked up noise, then its like lounge music... you just gotta hear this because I cant describe this properly.
