"The real deal. The most authentic 60's inspired garage rock
since Thee Milkshakes were around"

Vive le Rock

"The real sound of now busting through my door, new songs that keep kicking
the history forward. I can't imagine my turntable without The Courettes"

"Your new favourite band once you´ve heard them!"

louder than war

"A force to be reckoned with. Matching the garage rock ferocity of The Sonics to prime early 60s girl group, the band's output is utterly feral in the most addictive possible way. Reminiscent of The Ronettes given a Ramones style overhaul, their evil charms arrive covered in blood-soaked glamour. Twanging guitar and raucous percussion, a wild head-long charge into the unknown"
