Praise for GRIFTER:


“One of the best hard rock albums from top to bottom that I have listened to this year.”
 - WeLoveMetal.com



“This is an excellent album, catchy, groove rich and addictive . . . all (of the tracks) are of the same catchy, infectious quality. Get a copy and by the second listen I guarantee you will be singing along.” [4/5] -  Metal Talk.net



“Just about the best stoner rock band in England right now. Grifter build every one of their songs around monstrously grooving, simple riffs and smooth southern vocals. Something akin to Clutch jamming with Kim Thayil. Several songs, including opener Good Day For Bad News, Preacher And The Devil and Alabama Hotpocket are simply jammed with big riffs, and even when they go for an acoustic blues track to close with Gone Blues they can’t help but groove.” - JukeBox:Metal
