Reviews

The Flirt With Danger Mini-album reviewed by a leading indie music business website.
"Flirt with Danger describe themselves as a retro-scifi electrosurfbilly rock'n'roll band drawing heavily on neo-rockabilly, garage, surf, punk and alt-country influences, combined with electronics, chiefly in the form of simulated analog synths.
If that's not enough of a description for you I would say that they also have a LA Noir vibe in there that sounds like it would be good with a detective film.
"The Mini​-​album is a dirty, raw album that is the spirit of CBGB, the Cramps and all thing rock n’ roll. It has a punk aesthetic to it in a lot of ways despite the various genres it integrates."

There are LOADS more reviews from prominent critics and interviews:

Apocalyse Now - LotR mashup

Frodo, extremely drunk:
"Hobbiton, shit, I was still only in Hobbiton. Each time I dreamed I’d wake up in Mordor. Every minute I stay in this hobbit hole, I get weaker, and every minute Sauron squats in Mordor, he gets stronger."

Frodo sobers up and is addressed by Gandalf:
"Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to get into Mordor by any means necessary and to drop the ring of power into the crack of doom"
Frodo: "Terminate the ring?"
Bilbo: "Terminate with extreme prejudice"
Gandalf: "You understand, Frodo, that this mission does not exist nor will it ever exist"

Frodo: "I was going to the worst place in the Middle Earth and I didn't even know it yet. Weeks away and hundreds of miles down a river that snaked through Middle Earth like a main circuit cable plugged straight into Sauron.
I wouldn't be going alone, I was with a bunch of humanoids. Rock & rollers with one foot in their grave.
The one they called Boromir was wrapped too tight for Mordor. Hell, he was probably even wrapped too tight for Gondor. Legolas, on the archery, was a famous elf from Mirkwood. Gimli was from the mines of Moria, the light and space of Rivendell had put a zap on his head. Then there was Aragorn, it may have been my ring, but it sure as shit was Aragorn's mission."

Frodo: "Orcs didn't get much Dorwinion wine. They were dug in too deep or moving too fast. Their idea of great R&R was hobbit meat. They had only two ways home: death, or victory."

Boromir: "How come all you rangers sit on your helmets?"
Aragorn: "So we don't get our balls cut off"
Boromir laughs, then sits on his helmet.

Frodo: "'Never get out of the boat.' Absolutely goddamn right! Unless you were goin' all the way... Sauron got off the boat. He split from the whole fuckin' programme."

Aragorn: "My orders say I'm not supposed to know where I'm taking this boat, so I don't. But one look at you, and I know it's gonna be hot"
Frodo: "We're going down river about 75 klicks beyond the Gates Of Argonath."
Aragorn: "That's Mordor, Frodo."
Frodo: "That's classified. We're not supposed to be in Mordor, but that's where I'm going.

[At the Gates Of Argonath]
Boromir: "What's the matter with you? You're acting kinda weird!"
Legolas: "Hey, you know those mushies I was saving? I took them."
Boromir: "You did mushies? Far out!"
Legolas: "Disneyland? Fuck, man, this is better than Disneyland!"
Gimli: "This is sure enough a bizarre sight in the middle of all this shit."

[The party are taken before [Theodon]
Frodo: "It's pretty hairy in there, that's the orcs' grassland"
Theodon: "If I say it's safe to ride horses, young hobbit, it's safe to ride horses. Orcs don't ride!"
Theodon: "What the hell do you know about riding, Wormtongue? You're from goddamned Isengard."

Theodon: "Smell that? You smell that?"
Pippin: "What?"
Theodon: "Horse manure, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of horse manure in the morning. Smells like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end."
Frodo stares in disbelief.
Frodo: "If that's how Theodon fought the war, I began to wonder what they really had against Sauron. It wasn't just insanity and murder; there was enough of that to go around for everyone."

On arriving in Mordor:
Gollum: "There's mines over there, there's mines over there, and watch out those goddamn orcs bite, I'll tell ya."

Gollum: "He can be terrible. He can be mean. And he can be right. He's a great lord of darkness. I wish I had words, man. I wish I had words... I can tell ya something like the other day he wanted to torture me. Somethin' like that."
Frodo: "Why'd he wanna torture you?"
Gollum: "Because I knew where his ring was. He said 'If you don't tell me, I'm gonna kill you.' And he meant it! He becomes friendly again, he really does. But you don't judge Sauron. You don't judge Sauron like an ordinary demigod."

Gollum: "The heads. You're looking at the heads. Sometimes he goes too far. But... he's the first one to admit it."
Sam: "He's gone crazy!"
Gollum: "Wrong! Wrong! If you were here... if you could have heard the man speak just two days ago... God! You dare to call him crazy?"
Sam: "Fucking A!"

Gollum: "Why would a nice hobbit like you want to destroy the Ring Of Power? Why? Because they told you he was crazy? Sauron is not crazy. The demigod is clear in his mind, but his soul is mad."

Gollum: "What are they going to say about him? What? Are they going to say he was a kind demigod? He was a wise demigod? He had plans? He had wisdom? Bullshit, man!
This is the way the fucking world ends! Look at this fucking shit we're in, man. Not with a bang, but with a whimper. And with a whimper, I'm fucking splitting, Jack."

Sauron: "We must kill them. We must incinerate them. Hobbit after hobbit... elf after elf... village after village... army after army. I've seen horrors... horrors that you've seen. But you have no right to call me a murderer. You have a right to kill me. You have a right to do that... but you have no right to judge me. It's impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means. Horror... Horror has a face... and you must make a friend of horror. Horror and moral terror are your friends. If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared. As for the charges against me, I am unconcerned. I am beyond their timid, lying morality, and so I am beyond caring."

Sauron: "Did they say why, Frodo, why they want to destroy the Ring Of Power?"
Frodo: "I was sent on a classified mission, Lord of Darkness."
Sauron: "It's no longer classified, is it? What did they tell you?"
Frodo: "They told me that you had gone totally insane, and that your methods were unsound."
Sauron: "Are my methods unsound?"
Frodo: "I don't see any method at all, Lord of Darkness."
