"This is a stiff competitor for Party Album of the Year... The songwriting is top-notch, the alternation between punk, ska, and brass breakouts is just right... Try sitting still during this record, I dare you... 4 STARS "
Time Off Magazine, July 5 2006
"...a band like Wiseacre would never rest on their laurels and deliver a simpleton's ska-punk record, and their recent hiatus has been well spent, expanding their ska/rockabilly/punk-pop repertoire for the best. Enter Talking To Myself, its opening surf-safari guitar lick trailing into a dementia-noting chorus underscored by a longlost Hives riff Howlin' Pelle would be most jealous of. The band's beloved quirkiness and deft sense of fun is also punctuated heavily throughout Bingo Every Tuesday and Yeah You!, all adding to the idea that Step Up will take its place as one of Brisbane's best local releases by one of Brisbane's best local bands. One word: Awesome!"

Wiseacre have guitars, drums, bass and horns but then so does a bull in a music shop, so thats not saying much......
Set to the tempo of a drunken tap dancer and smacking of dirty old man cheek, Wiseacre's new full-length album "STEP UP" is out now thru Green / MGM distro or on iTunes.
