“The Deadline Shakes have, with just a few releases to their name, quickly become one of my favourite bands… Some bands go through whole careers and don’t sound as effortless as this, with everything working together just as it should. Prepare to be dazzled.” Scots Whay Hae
“I have a new term (I think) that I hope you remember when listening to this. “Future Classic”. “Zealots” has all the makings of a classic album without the risk of becoming tired or cliche.” Jammerzine
“The Deadline Shakes have delivered a magnificent first offering. And you get the feeling that it has only just begun.” Scottish Fiction
“like Dan Bejar of Destroyer and Jeff Lynne got drunk and had a late night tryst.” (9/10) Soundblab
“the sheer joy of the melodies is the key here – you simply can’t resist them… Zealots is basically one of the best albums you’ll hear this year.” XS Noise
“The Deadline Shakes have provided something simply amazing with Zealots, with it being one of those awfully rare compilations where each and every single one of the robust tracks is bursting with creativity … this band have proved themselves to be a force to be reckoned with.” Local Music Scene
