“For a lot of bands round these parts, the sound of The Brian Jonestown Massacre is a lot like the clitoris. They spend a lot of time going after it, but despite bragging heartily about it in interviews and being told by their pals they’re bang on, they’ve never actually been anywhere near it. But for Bernaccia, I can report with panting glee that they’ve not only found it, but they know exactly what to do with it. The sound, not the other thing. Riff-led and captivating throughout, this foot stomping dirty slice of neo-psychedelia bliss should be sought out immediately" - Narc Magazine
Bernaccia certainly know how to write well-judged and twangy rock if this atmospheric single is anything to go by. Its a driving, bluesy affair which grabs you from the off,relying on a lean and mean tempo to keep any bluster at bay. Utterly captivating" - The Crack magazine
