“Taking inspiration from 70’s psych and rock, before giving the sound a modern kick up the arse.” – RIOT

“ĠENN – a band set on continually developing their compelling sound and enrapturing our ears with their unique fantastical spirit.” – GET IN HER EARS 

“The haunting air of the vocals and the complex musical undercurrents doubly prove that even though ĠENN still have their Riot Grrrl creds, they’ve evolved.” – THE PHONOGRAPH
