CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOR THE LP:

JANUS STARK - Angel In The Flames LP

"THE MELODIES ARE... PURE SUGAR FOR THE SOUL"!

"47 minutes of pure kick ass rock ‘n’ roll... ...at once brilliant and heart breaking, written from the darkest corners of the human psyche but with a hope and cheerfulness for the future that makes it seem almost light hearted. From vocals, to drums, driving guitar riffs to bass, production is spot on. It’s as near to a perfect album as you can get... quite possibly the best punk album of the year..."
DEVOLUTION MAGAZINE (29/09/2019)

"...jaw dropping riffing and virtuoso licks that are part and parcel of what Gizz has always done, lift each and every song to dizzying heights, allowing the record to soar and discover its sublime, unique identity. Angel in the Flames is a near perfect pop record that’s infused with a whole load of punk attitude, energy and aggression and owes as much to the Merseybeat bands of the sixties as it does to early eighties American Hardcore. It’s everything that I hoped it would be and so much more besides..."

"The thing that sets Janus Stark apart from their contemporaries is the fact that Gizz is a shredder. While ‘Angel In The Flames’ is littered with turn of the Century pop punk sensibilities, buzzsaw guitars and full band harmonies, there is a more technical and aggressive element in place thanks to Gizz’s guitar histrionics. Yet, while the lyrics are socially and politically aware, and the riffs crunchy, it’s the melodies that always shine through, they are pure sugar for the soul...."
