“Mr. Spencer, a charismatic vocalist and guitarist, shook and shimmied onstage like a 1950’s sock-hop singer gone bad, howling Big Bopper-inspired exclamations and entreaties into the microphone. The band, which also included Russell Simins on drums and Judah Bauer on guitar and harmonica, played revved-up jams rooted in the lewd rockabilly of the garage groups of the 1950’s.” – Neil Strauss / New York Times

“Spencer and Martinez met at D.C.’s hallowed 9:30 club on December 8, 1985 – the feast of the Immaculate Conception – at a Jesus and Mary Chain show. ” – Rob Sheffield / Details (December 1996)

“I was very entertained by what they were doing with their usual array of cello, guitars and tape decks, plus tonight they also had a guest guitarist from Pussy Galore. The Peach of Immortality was a way of taking conventional instruments and making a most unusual collage of sounds out of them.” – WDC Period, Vol. 1, No. 13

“…I had little patience for the openers. I only remember one of them: noise band Peach of Immortality, who blew my left ear out that night. It’s never been the same.” – Mike Schulman / Culturie

*The complete performance was released on the nine disc Peach of Immortality compilation ‘Surrealismus: Paris Prag Rockville’.*

“The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion was more successful, because of the group’s willingness to thoroughly challenge the music’s norms. Mr. Spencer, formerly of Pussy Galore, led his trio through a set of clanking musical pull-aparts grounded in the sleazy rhythms of 1960’s garage punk.” – Ann Powers / New York Times
