"Superlatives old and new have been and gone and Desperate Journalist are still the epitome of perfect consistency, stunning prolificacy and heart-swelling beauty. Many others come and some acclaim them the best, but Desperate Journalist remain." - God Is In The TV live review

"Their post-Kim Deal/Breeders dynamic alt-rock is getting more fine-tuned by the day. It’s never easy to let songs as intense and powerful as these breath in the back room of a pub – albeit one of the finest back rooms of any pub on the circuit. The Castle is a great venue but The Empty Page deal in big soundscapes and have gigantic songs - huge slices of emotional power for Kel to deliver her melodic and beautiful voice over and the small PA is sweating to hold in their creative enormity – a mash of linear post-punk, proto-grunge dynamics and alt-rock skree." - Louder Than War live review
