THE UPTIGHTS – «AT THE WÖRTHERSEE HOTEL» (2011)

«There are good tapes. There are tapes that stick with you and maintain your attention long after they have been filed away in some box or upon a shelf. There are some tapes that sit in the “new arrivals” pile for ages, simply because every time you listen to them you hear something new. And then there are tapes like this one. Norway’s The Uptights have done masterful things to the potentially stale world of shoegazing sounds, and made stark cold winters At The Worthersee Hotel sound like a comforting and terrifying experience. (…) Garage punk gone the way of dark synths and noise scapes born out of disconcerting distortion…perhaps this cassette is a perfect accident, or perhaps The Uptights are your favorite band.»
- Terminal Escape

«The Uptights er noe så sjeldent som et originalt band.»
- Bra Trommis, Radio Nova
