“Wreckage of Now” Single Press and reviews:
Skope Magazine, Aug. 7, 2020- “For many, [Stott’s] songs will sound a whole lot better than the sonic wreckage of (music) now.”
Dancing About Achitecture, Aug. 7, 2020– “And if you are going to argue that all you can do when in the confines of the genre is re-invent the wheel to some degree, at least artists such as Jay Stott manage to add some fancy trims, rev the engine excessively and take that wheel for a spin round the block, ignoring stop signs and pedestrians, jumping the lights, leaving tyre marks on the road surface and generally annoying the neighbours. It is rock and roll after all.” -Dave Franklin
The Bandcamp Diaries, Aug. 3, 2020– “Jay’s vocal style recalls rock icons such as John Mellencamp, Bruce Springsteen, and Ben Nichols, to mention but a few. If you like the raw style of these artists then you’ll love Jay Stott’s new release.”
Camden Monthly, Aug. 6, 2020– “if you were hoping for a bit of old school carnage to spice up your playlist this spring, [Wreckage of Now] makes a near-perfect addition by all measurements. -Matt Herman
Up Up Music, Aug. 6, 2020– “Wreckage of Now may be a yarn about navigating a messy life with booze as your guide, but the song comes to us via such top-notch skills that the result is anything but a wreck.” -Christopher Dallman
