SONIC HEDGEHOG on
Excite Music:
Sonic Hedgehog will always garner comparisons to Social Distortion, because of the striking resemblances between the two bands. Both have punk leanings but never wholly abandon pure rock 'n' roll, both keep the guitars scorching and covered in a heavy layer of grunge, and both have lead singers with voices like gravel beds. Not bad for a band that doesn't even identify as sick boys.

02.08.00
SONIC HEDGEHOG is on weekly-rotation
on RADIO-ANTENNA2 in Italy!!!!! The songs from the

The video for "I Know a Girl" will be released sometimes
in September/October (Any day now!), and SONIC HEDGEHOG will
head for the studio to record a new single in
November. If You wanna read some reviews clic
None of Your Business!!!

19.06.00
SONIC HEDGEHOG was chosen No 1 on the monthly
TOP 10 at DBZMusic on March 6th. The "None of Your Business"
EP got pretty good reviews:
!This is a very ready and smooth band, that’s all you can say when "Leaving for tomorrow" bursts out of your stereo. The band has obviously found it’s style, a melodic and R.E.M-ish catchiness. The songs are very bombastic and their catchiness is superb. No wonder these hits have been played on several radiostations. All tunes roll on smoothly and the band play together like a dream. "Maybe (I don’t Know)" is an OASIS like piece, melody and singing wise. It shows a more gentle side of the band with a fantastic feeling to it. "None of Yur Business" also has a guaranteed brittish hook to it. These guys knows how to compose and arrange, which makes the chorus to "None of Your Business" fly. SONIC HEDGEHOG should easily get a record deal, if they don’t already have one. This is brilliant , and you will here about this band! Listen and learn!!!"

NONE OF YOR BUSINESS-EP review in the
finnish Rock'n'Roll magazine SOUNDI (10/99):

"The best thing is the ease with which
the band carries this record through.
They seem to have well enough attitude,
and manages to give a very trustworthy
image of themselves. An emotional performance
by this new band, who almost reaches the
level of a special appointment by the reviewer! "

27.09
SONIC HEDGEHOG review in the e-zine
THE SWINGING SHINDIG (9/99):

"ARTIST: Sonic Hedgehog GENRE: rock'n'roll
SONG: Leaving For Tomorrow RATING: 4 stars
Reviewed by: John McLean
Straight rock with grinding guitars and catchy melodies. The lyrics
are a bit trite, but the simple approach is refreshing, reminding me
of a less angry Social Distortion in the early 90s. They cite Guns'n'Roses
as an influence, but there is less Hollywood in the 'hogs' sound."

15.09

had over 2,000 visits and 1,000 downloads
