BENSON BURNER (Jetset Records cat no. TWA 63 CD) Release date 19th August 2003
"Pioneering the comeback of Neanderthal Rock are four kids from East London called Ten Benson. Packing a truckload
of AC/DC meet Ted Nugent riffs into a colossal 12 tracks on their Jet Set (US) debut “Benson Burner”, the band converge a
low-fi edge with titanic density and pull off one of the most exciting records of the year. " -

"Benson Burner is a roll down the windows and
crank-it, cruising album without the trendy beer commercials. In fact, even with the “rock revival” going on, there is nothing
trendy about this album. Their blend of metal, blues and swamp punk is the perfect formula for classic rock evolved
(or devolved). It’s hard driving raunch rock blasted out of huge stacks, cranked up to the proverbial 11 and ready to pummel
the ears of anyone and everyone in its path." -

"Busting at the crotch with raw rock and roll (so genuine you can practically smell the blood and vomit), Ten Benson
grind their way through twelve tracks on Benson Burner like a whiskey-fueled woodcutter. It's rough and messy, but it's
the most fun you'll ever have getting filthy." - CRAZEWIRE.COM
"...'Burner' is new wave bulked up on steroids and AC/DC records. The filthy highlight 'Tits' is also the catchiest
thing on the disc, with reverb-drenched slang terms for genitalia cheekily screamed above thrashing dance beats and
arena metal posturing..." - BILLBOARD.COM
