They Said It...

Gemma Pike (triple j)
"QOTSA-eqsue with an über rock break down. Looking forward to more."

Jaymz Clements (Editor - triple j magazine)
"KINGSWOOD are the perfect blend of rip-snorting, muscular rock that claims Josh Homme as its patron saint, and melodic stoner punk – Yeah Go Die is a sublime, brawny rush and should see them stomping all over the pansy-tight jeaned poseur jerks who've somehow appropriated rock'n'roll from its sweaty, kick-arse origins."

Rosie Beaton (triple j)
"Rock on KINGSWOOD! Yeah Go Die is a pumping tune, whip lashing indeed and very stoner-rock."

Nathan Wood (V-Music)
"KINGSWOOD's Yeah Go Die is a stripped down, no bullshit punch in the face of everything that's rock. There's no computers, no synths, no production tricks – just a bunch of dudes playing their instruments hard, fast and loud. If you want to take your shirt off, let your gut hang out, pound a beer and blow an ear drum, then get this, load up and let loose."
