- the legendary Jon Spencer and Matt VertaRay -

"Anyone who knows anything about Spencer, or had the thrill of witnessing his vigorous showmanly performances with Pussy Galore, Gibson Brothers, Honeymoon Killers, Boss Hog, Blues Explosion, and many more, are well aware that the man is much more than one of the most prolific, distinctive, and stylish forces in contemporary music, but, briefly and bluntly, he remains a rare rock’n’roll heart who brings it like no other every time. Verta-Ray, a truly unsung hero of the NYC underground, isn’t only responsible for the lightning-fast, yet elegantly tight and soulful guitar incisions in Speedball Baby and Madder Rose, but is also the unseen hand behind a number of classic recordings by everyone from the Subsonics to Andre Williams." - Newyorknighttrain

- ex - Speedball Baby, SWANS, Chrome Cranks, Sonic Youth, Pussy Galore -

"Together these Size Queens conjure a noirish, playful, weird rock with no shortage of experimentalism that, while a step beyond, remains consistent to the rough individualistic post-No Wave downtown aesthetic that the members have continuously been a primary force redefining since the 1980s." - NYNT

- DEBUT NYC APPEARANCE -

- new LP out on IN THE RED and produced by ex-member of The Birthday Party

"Witch Hats are a violently sludgey, darkly churning group of misfits. . . " - RCDLBL

"Melbourne's The Witch Hats have built an impressive live reputation as a band which recaptures some of the glory days of Melbourne's dirty rock past: think The Scientists meets Asteroid B612 with some Rowland S. Howard thrown in to the mix." - Messandnoise

- NYC noise/scum/sleaze rock -

"Woman, the band split international-playboy-style between NYC, USA and Mexico City, DF, and led by an able Australian—Beefheart splatter guitar over caveman rhythm section and split ursine vocals; sounded like Link Wray catching up to Black Flag, or something from Nick Cave, too... Coming LP should be good—too-sick rock from two sick cities." -- Chris Ziegler, The District Weekly
