Testimonials - 23/02/2011

"An anthem-toting punk trio from South Wales. Solutions are neither following or explicitly shunning fashion, they are just following their own path. Before The Roars touches on Gainesville punk and bassy post-hardcore, exhibiting a jerky lyrical cadence of the sort At The Drive-In hit pay dirt with. Solutions have a real quality in them." - (RockSound)

"Solutions forge an exciting gruff punk/indie hybrid - imagine Tom Gabel fronting Kubichek! and you're halfway there. Before the Roars was released as a free download last December and serves as a testament to the breadth and vibrancy of UK punk rock in 2010." - (PunkNews)

"It goes without saying that a truckload of modern punk bands owe a huge debt to Hot Water Music. Cardiff's Solutions go one further, 'The Rest Will Follow' is 'HWM's' 'Southeast First' in new skin, while the gravel throated , emotional clout with which they power-drive through the likes of 'Sons Of Daughters' would even impress ol' Chuck himself. Passionate, Powerful stuff." - (24/7 Magazine)

"Three piece Solutions aren't falling among the ranks and following what you may have come to expect from South Wales from the likes of Lostprophets or Funeral For A Friend, but their gritty and energetic punk found on debut album 'Before the Roars' is full of potential and shout-a-long choruses." - (Punktastic)

"South Wales' latest emerging talents Solutions sing from a slightly different sheet to their mainstream countrymen - dabbling in the kind of muddied sound that indicates a familiarity more in keeping with the likes of Biffy Clyro than it does their fellow townsfolk. Before The Roars showcases just enough to have you believing that this Cardiff-based trio may just have another passage to write in Wales' burgeoning success story." - (RockMidgets)

... will be adding to these as and when we get press back for 'The First Two Years'.
