"Cosmic Fireworks is a lavishly packaged and utterly unmissable legacy in compendium form from the band who must rate as Englands very own Uncle Tupelo. A truely thrilling collection. Re-issue of the year."

"MWK is an exceptional songwriter "
Paul Du Noyer, Word

"This ‘countryfied' body of work might be the most precious rediscovery of the year!"
German Rolling Stone.

"The British band that played alt.country before anyone knew what the hell it was. Had the Good Sons done this same thing across the Atlantic, they would surely have been acclaimed trailblazers."
