Packed with skull-rattling tunes that demand to be played loud.” - Kerrang! “They’re people who clearly know what they're doing. It’s exciting. Like riding on the roof of a train as it accelerates while being chased by an assassin with a knife. A cruel knife.” - Team Rock “If this is Side One, we’ll take side two right now please.” - KKKK “The Cruel Knives storm the O2 on their debut tour.” - Birmingham Express “Huge anthemic riff-a-thons.” - Kerrang Live
