random bits of press...
"their music is melancholy and brooding, stark and bold, yet beautiful and elegant. see them live and one moment they'll be pure artists, using the space in front of them as a sonic canvas on which to paint and render their music. the next however, they'll behave like uncaged beasts; raw and fuelled by adrenaline, attacking the audience with a sonic onslaught"

"post rock poncery can be a bigger turn off than a hairy back, which is why johnny poindexter must be something special... dark and atmospheric, using a singer as an instrument, rather than a star, they paint soundscapes to raise all aforementioned hairs, then knock the breath out of you"
kate wellham, the fly
"like fellow yorkshire dwellers hood, their music is both melancholy and highly experimental yet somewhere in between they produce songs which are compelling and original"

"the music is nigh on impossible to categorise... but one fictitious norwich radio presenter, if asked to comment on johnny poindexter, would be sure to thrust his fist in the air and shout 'jurassic park' triumphantly"

"four solemn tracks of grey landscapes, bits of random plastic blowing on barbed wire fences and rain soaked winter roads... this is johnny poindexter's world. inspired by the likes of mogwai, with a good slice of electronica, it's perfect for a quiet night in lying on your bed"
