What the press say
Linda Serck, BBC, April 07
\"The Trouble With Me kick off the night with an adrenalin-charged grunge explosion. Tighter than ever before, and with catchier new songs, the boys telegraph the message that they are on fire.
\"The snarling fuzz of guitars mixed with lead singer Bulla\'s rasping outpouring, which borders on the downright petulant but veers on the right side of \'angry young man\', serves up a dish best served burning hot.
\"Raucously foreboding tracks such as Beautiful and Your Bed Is Always Empty confirms from the outset that this band ain\'t paying no homage to love god Barry White (as their band name may suggest), but their hell-raising cover of Johnny Cash\'s Folsom Prison Blues sure as hell tips a hat to the Man In Black\".
