UK racket-makers PRE will be returning to the States in April for a West Coast tour. Last year the band made waves with their CMJ showcase performance and mini-tour of the North and North East.

The album is like a high-speed escalator in which each track tops the manic energy of the last. As Matsuura breathes Boredoms-style fire, the band rips out blinding post-punk that evokes the Fall at 78 RPM, or Erase Errata in a fist-fight with Lightning Bolt. – Paper Thin Walls

Epic Fits is more fun than any number of last year’s punk releases, if nowhere near as accomplished. – Pitchfork

[Guitarist] John Webb relies on the art of dissonant anti-chords and angular licks as he chops his fuzzed guitar like manic Thurston Moore foaming at the mouth over raged tempos that are sporadically interspersed with sudden disjointed pauses. – Billboard.com // Allmusic
