"Katie Malco has updated folklore for a modern audience." Punktastic
"Tearing Ventricles is twenty minutes of Katie Malco laid bare; detailing loss, anger, hope, despair and absolute joy - a piano, a voice and the most vital honesty laid down in song this year. In 'Wake Up and Fight', Malco instructs to "wake up, feel alive" - and for these twenty minutes we've never felt more so.” 405
