"In the songs Le Funk, Come Break My Heart, Doctor Longhair, Brand New (Again) and Temper Temper, Full Fat lay down the musical calorie count and it is as bursting with goodness and packed with highlights as it alludes too, yet never once straying into the path of reckless abandoned crowded weight; this is an E.P. that sees the light and praises the dark from which it came." 4/5 stars

"Full Fat arrived on stage as something of an unknown quantity to us, but left as old friends. They offered an energetic, engaging set full of diverse influences from blues, rock 'n' roll and even, dare I say it, a touch of country. The crowd were at most lively of the evening and were fully-engrossed in what was happening on-stage. Their playing was tight and even their jokes were funny. We'd book them again for sure"
