What they say about FLIPRON: "Its kind of dark mysterious and slightly sinister ... (if Flipron were a cheese?) it might possibly be Venezuelan Beaver Cheese; of Monty Python fame, but see what you think."
Tom Robinson Evening Sequence

"Flipron are truly quite a find. Fancy Blues And Rustique Novelties is a multi-layered, fantastically unpredictable and often morbidly hilarious ride which all discerning music fans need to hear. Lets hope this is merely the sound of them gunning that jet-black hearse and easing it onto the highway for a lengthy death trip."
Whisperin & Hollerin

".....As unique as their name....Flipron play easy listening in the true sense of music that is melodic and pleasing......Lyrically, Jesse follows his flights of fancy wherever they take him, frequently arriving at superb fables like that of Youth Shall Never Beat Old Age in a Race......a song about nothing less than mortality and the meaning of life.....Flipron have an album out (soon)...look out for it."
The Minds Construction

"With out doubt the most talked about act we have ever booked, every time FLIPRON play we get inundated with calls enquiring as to these chaps marital status and future dates. Dark and often unsetteling lyrics set to cheesy late night polka induced psychotic hammond organs to the fore. Ding f**ken dong!!!"
Up All Night

"Easy listening for the uneasy... a myriad of familiar musical sounds become beaten into unrecognisable shapes.... Dark, twisted, friendly, eclectic and tuneful, with a nihilistic-poet at the helm Š you wonÕt know why Flipron intrigue you but it is doubtless they will."
National Student

"This album is described on the cover as "39 minutes in the merciless hands of Flipron". Well this is not long enough as far as I am concerned. Fancy Blues And Rustique Novelties is poetic and can be quite melancholic, yet this is not a depressing album - despite the recurring themes of death and ghostliness. In fact, its guaranteed to make you smile. The lyrics are inspired with clever rhymes resulting in some cracking songs. Each track is a story and Flipron have definitely got that elusive "catchy" factor, Big Baboon for example, is bound to have you singing along in no time." thebeatsurrender.co.uk

and yes, sorry but I have yet more exciting news.
The boys will be playing a live session on BBC RADIO 6 MUSIC on the day of release 26th July on Tom Robinson's Evening Sequence from 7pm: you can listen live online here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/presenters/tom_robinson/index.shtml
