 | "Like most bands, Protohero started off as unknowns and played gig after gig in an effort to make a name for themselves. Barely a year later and they have blossomed into one of the North East's most promising talents. Drawing influences from every genre under the sun ( that shines down so favourably upon them), Protohero weild powerpop with the distinction of Millencolin. This is catchy punk rock that will bury its barbs in your brain, and you'll be damn grateful. These are going to be fighting the labels off with a large crooked stick." - Blackglass.co.uk
"...as soon as they (protohero) kicked in with Good Question the crowd were hooked and being dragged in by that Proto-reel" (sorry). As Protohero drew to an end the crowd had reached pandemonium. There were bodies everywhere which resulted in someone being pushed onto the stage over one of the monitors; even this didnt seem to take the momentum away from Protohero as they just carried on with their punk rock onslaught. Protohero I think deserved their advance in to the 2nd round..." - Undergroungvoice.co.uk
"This is one of the bands Im keeping an eye on I hope to hear more in the future!" - 4/5 EP Review by Dieshellsuit.co.uk
"Protohero could become Nine Black Alps' biggest rivals!!" - Repeatfanzine.co.uk
"Primarily the band like to push the accelerator pedal down and once 'Great Cock Fights of the Fifteenth Century' gets going the band sound all the better for it... they get the thumbs up from me for trying not to be a US clone. Protohero sound a little different from your average Joes and they're worth checking out..." - puntastic.com
