“Twin-fiddles, from the lush to the distorted, backed up by the world’s oldest big drum, lead this set of lo-fi Christian tunes and songs. Lou Reed, Nick Cave and backwoods preachers are all in there, bless ‘em. Magnificently loopy.” fRoots
“It's a visceral, rough hewn ride - foot stompy and fuzzy around the edges. Equally spooky and sublime, it's hard to know whether these Sons will save you or send you to the pits of Hell. But whatever the final judgement, it's sure to leave you in a better place. Amen!” R2
“I've heard better sounding third generation bootlegs. I don't suppose commercial success was the aim here but would have it have been too much of an artistic compromise to record these songs properly?” Blues Bunny

Because of a dispute between Tunecore (our online distributor) and Amazon UK and Europe, antigen records downloads have not been available via Amazon MP3 since 24 January 2012. This dispute has now been resolved. Amazon MP3 downloads should be available again from the end of May 2012. Apologies for any inconvenience.
