Press Reviews
Tonight the two brothers were united, and proved that thgreater than the sum of the parts. With classic sibling harmoniesstanding comparison with the Finn brothers, they also had a great feel,loosebut tight delivery and great songs. Loaded Dice was boosted by somevery deft guitar playing and the unforgettable line "sloe gin and a neongrin". There was a highly effective contrast in the two brothers' leadvocals, but they were as one on the harmonies, notably on the last song,almost certainly the only popular song called Pixelated Mexican Sun. |
