“Riding a tide of youthful energy, 'The Great and The Good' is delivered with infectious enthusiasm and fizz. It even features a break for some hand-clap friendly drumbeats and a crowd-pleasing "whooooa-whoooooa" gang vocal that's guaranteed to give any live audience a vocal chord workout. 3/5”

Max Raptor on Push to Fire


07 June 2010
pushtofire.com

Having cut their touring teeth landing support slots with The Zutons and Canadian punk-rockers Billy Talent, the Max Raptor boys embarked on a UK tour supporting British punk legends The Stranglers in February this year, to riotous applause. 'The Great and The Good' was produced by Sam Bell, whose studio credits include Bloc Party, REM, Snow Patrol, Weezer and Editors, and is a ballsy, slap in the face song, made up of brilliant modern guitar sounds , anthemic gang vocals, a chorus that you cant help but die for, and a lashing rhythm section that reeks of the most pungent post-gig sweaty tee, Max Raptor is the Arctic Monkeys, on steroids!

'The Great and The Good' will shake you to your core and make you want to scream for more.
