"Nowhere Near The Garden gave a lesson in coolness from their bassist Rog, pumping out the bass lines in his shades. These are certainly a favourite with those in the pit”

"one of the sites more popular bands."

Playmusic Magazine
“Straight from the heart delivery - this is balls-out rock with a conscience”.

Bloodstock metalfest - zero tolerance magazine
Surprisingly brilliant and previously unknown to me are the curiously named nowhere near the garden, a band who mix emocore with post-grunge, and funk metal with punk – think nickelback jamming with Primus and At The Drive In and you’re sort of getting there. At face value the Birmingham based quartet are totally out of place, but for me anyway, run out as surprise victors of the whole weekend. Brilliant!

"In amongst all the face-painting gimmicks, cultivated bad attitudes and flavours-of-the-month there will always be bands that shine thru with sheer quality. Nowhere Near the Garden are quality. From the first track on this CD you know that decent songs and musicianship are important to these guys. NNTG are going to be hugely successful."

'The Mic'
(Nottingham University's Music Magazine)
"Nowhere Near the Garden - One of the brightest rock bands on the scene at the moment, their live shows are exceptional affairs, with the coolest bass player in the business and a lead singer that really knows how to get in an audience's face. Their music is about pure adrenaline, taking influences from bands such as Incubus, RATM and melting them together into a rock frenzy."

Midlands Metro
A band for all seasons. Potentially massive!”
