„A Dirty Honkers show hardly knows any limits. Once the music drifts off to Gabba-Techno, once it evokes reverly headbanging. During the song „Bubble Bath“ it may happen, that the band enters the stage in their bathing suits. One could call it punk with other instruments. Or 'Swing Tech Electro Freakshow', how the Honkers themselves call it.“
