Lemon create exactly the sound that Primal Scream, Stone Roses and Happy Mondays did in their best days of the MADchester wave. On top of that they simply write great songs.

Rockete.com: ‘Catchy hooks and a mix of modern beats and rock melodies reminiscent of the past make this CD a release to appease the masses’
LEMON ON LEMON:
Mark: ‘Stone Roses the next generation, The Verve with some dance influences, Kasabian-ish, !!!-ish, Talking Head-ish, Smashing Pumpkins in a good mood, Happy Mondays but with a little rock added to it. Something like that, more or less, but not quite.’
Paul: ‘To me the crowded concert when we supported The Charlatans in De Melkweg (Amsterdam) was the best so far. On the other hand: the aftershow for Primal Scream at Paradiso Amsterdam, Club Arena, Tivoli, Luxor, Woodstock at the beach and of course the live appearances at the 3 FM studios and Kink FM studios were not bad either. Ralf: ‘Nothing comes close to playing a new song as it was meant to be for the first time.’
