whigs_img04_hiresTitle: Feb 5 – The Whigs w/ Royal Bangs
Location: Zanzabar Louisville Music Venue & Restaruant
Date: 2010-02-05

NEW YORK TIMES
“The Whigs’ new album, ‘Mission Control,’ rarely digresses from it’s hooks – tightly chorded guitar parts and tense but tuneful vocals – as it dips into rock from the 1960′s to the 2000s, from garage-rock to post-punk.”

USA TODAY WEEKEND
“The Whigs have made an album with the energy and smarts of the Strokes’ first record. The songs pull in a lot of classic pop and rock influences.”

PEOPLE
“A tight, rock solid set of songs.”

SPIN MAGAZINE – ‘Breaking Out’ feature
“A collection of rousing rock n roll fundamentals … tightly constructed tunes, wiry guitar shards and ecstatic, beer-soaked choruses”

BILLBOARD
“The beauty of the Whigs: not only is the band mercifully unpretentious, its power-trio format means the tunes are refreshingly uncluttered, allowing clear-as-a-bell melodies room to breathe.”
