I started a quest to find terrific blues music and incredible musicianship when I was just a little kid. I also have a tremendous appreciation of fine musical instruments and equipment.

Sounds like a forgotten gem from the Ace Records catalogue, but it's brand new.
– Artrocker
An unholy alliance of scowling, snarling vocals, sleazy guitar licks, Motown horns, and
high octane percussion. – The Mad Mackerel
They have found a way to reconcile their twin passions: Stooges and Stax, garage and soul, rock'n'roll's trash aesthetic and the exuberance and jubilation of old-style R&B.
– The Guardian
A damn fine piece of contemporary rock & soul with a burning flame of Spiritualized and The Mary Chain at its core. – Female First
Waves Of Fury's 'Thirst' delivers a unique and fresh sonic experience. – Rustzine
Never before would I have thought that The Sex Pistols should have collaborated with Marvin Gaye! – Altsounds
Soul music often seemed to reach for the divine, but paradoxically, Thirst through its
raw execution, seems to sink its arms deep down down into the Earth. – Punknews
Kind of The Fall meets The Commitments. – Q The Music
