".......this is some of the funniest, cleverest and most relevant indie you're likely to hear this year. Gedge might be old enough to be Alex Turner's dad, but he could still teach the Monkey a thing or two."- NME (8/10).

"Take the reconvened Wedding Present, f'r'instance - 2005's 'Take Fountain' was the most vital album David Gedge has produced since 'Watusi', and, thrillingly, its follow-up (El Rey), is better still."
- ROCKSOUND MAGAZINE (8/10)
"Gedge has consistently been way ahead of other, more lauded musicians. He was covering Pavement and adopting the sounds of the US underground while Blur were still playing faux - baggy; his Cinerama project tackled epic pop while Alex Turner was watching kids' TV."
- THE GUARDIAN
