"Tinmen performing at Xfm's Rock School final at The Roadhouse. They won the competition with their version of Transmission. I found the performance very intense and moving.
Without a word of a lie, I was shaking. I found it incredibly emotional. Here’s some of the reasons I think I felt like that…the obvious reason is the choice of song. Thoughts of Ian Curtis, thoughts of Tony. The fact that this was kids desperately chasing a dream. Their mums, dads, little sisters were there, aching with anticipation. It reminded me a lot of what rock n roll is and why we do what we do" - Clint Boon on his favourite moment of 2007
"what they lack in years of experience they apparently more than make up for in natural talent" - How-Do
"the next big thing" - Metro News
