Riverfront Times: Critic's Pick The Patsys (2004)

Back in 2004 The Patsys hit the road with a pair of singles and played the midwest, including a stop in St. Louis, which prompted a write-up in the Riverfront Times. Here's some of that:
Like most garage bands worth their grease, the Patsys dig their vintage gear and vintage yelps and yeahs, but they also attack songs like time-warped double A-sides -- two years together and they've only released singles -- or taunts to Neighborhood Watch to shut their shit down. With a Yardbirdsy guitar snarl and a hellacious drummer, this Columbus, Ohio, foursome cuts trashy go-go grooves with hooks too shiny for punk and too violent for power pop.
