"Tearing out of Portsmouth and fronted by the sweeping vocals of Roberta Collins, Hold Fast sound like a venom-injected Siouxsie and the Banshees complete with a 21st century makeover. Piecing distortion, throbbing basslines and feverish percussion set the stage for new single Jaws, laying the perfect foundations for Collins’ ice-cool tenor to provide the theatrics to a tight and concise pop song.
Having supporting the likes of White Lies, These New Puritans and White Denim, it seems like there’s more than enough for Hold Fast in the ranks of British pop-punk, and they’re more than keen to fill it. With a formidable live-reputation to boot, Hold Fast are looking like an exciting prospect for the future - but for now, this will have to suffice."
