best industry quotes
- Vic Galloway BBC Radio 1/BBC Radio Scotland - The Strands sound like a muscular outfit who blend the lad-rock tendencies of Oasis and Kasabian with good, old-time, low-slung riffola reminiscent of Led Zep, Black Crowes etc. Loud and proud with their eye on the prize!
- Jim Gellatly XFM Scotland - Hints of Stereophonics, with a bit of The Doors and Oasis coming through as well.... altogether creating a rather satisfying blend of driving indie rock. 'Tomorrow Too Soon' is certainly one of those tunes that sticks in your head, and won't go away
