"In Truax's hands music is merely a vessel for his scattershot imagination, earning him a place in a lineage that includes Captain Beefheart and Viv Stanshall and, latterly, a less-frenetic Liars..." --Alan Downes, LOGO Magazine(review of Full Moon Over Wowtown)

"...It's a bewildering melange of garage rock songs, avant garde sounds and cabaret showtunes, full of whistles, toy piano, ice cream chimes and invented instruments... with shades of Tom Waits' storytelling, Nick Cave's theatricality and Lux Interior's howling-at-the-moon madness." -Ged M, SoundsXP

"... like David Devant and his Spirit Wife playing tunes with a set of Meccano and a guitar constructed out of elastic bands. Quite marvellous..." -Jeremy Allen, playlouder.com

    Thomas Truax is one of the few truly original and inspiring artists slaving away out there right now. Equal parts unsettling and intriguing!

    I saw Truax support Duke Special in the Ulster Hall and again in the Empire - pure unadulterated awe-inspiring genius. Love it.
