"CMJ MusicFest"

"NYC-based angst rocker Greenwood may be classically-trained, but the ballsy head-banging spirit of Joan Jett rattles in her bones" - CMJ MusicFest


"The Boston Phoenix"

"Greenwood has a knack for transforming pain and anger into edgy songs that
alternately smolder and blaze with the eloquently pissed off attitude of
Chrissie Hynde. Her lyrics are reminiscent of Lou Reed and Patti Smith" - The Boston Phoenix


"Bust Magazine"

"You can make out the words, which are like the music, filled with power and angst and compare favorably to early Hole"
- Bust Magazine


"Boston Herald"

"Sounds like PJ Harvey without the overblown angst" - Boston Herald


"Noisy Fans of America"

"Literate Joan Jett-styled rock'n'roll. If Henry Rollins could write great
lyrics, he'd be Sarah Greenwood. She's a moody song-stylist with soul AND
energy."
- Noisy Fans of America


"GSX Featured Artist in Go Mag"

“When Sarah steps on stage, the audience pays attention. She holds her guitar with ferocious confidence, her wide-set stance and aggressive stage-presence mirroring the greatest of rock’ n’ roll legends. In tight jeans and well-worn motorcycle boots, Greenwood holds her own in a genre of music dominated by men." - GO Magazine

"GSX Featured in NY Waste"

“She kicks ass in a way that makes the hairs on your spine stand up on edge. GSX has a big future to tap into. So listen up and catch them while you can.” - NY Waste - NY Waste


"GSX: 5 Bands You Should Know About"

“GSX’s debut “Manifest” was impressive enough; think Velvet Revolver-infused riffage mixed with searing female lead vocals. And then there’s the live show. British-transplant Sarah Greenwood rocks NYC club stages like they have no business being rocked; Greenwood could easily play a 3000 or 4000 seater and have no problem filling the stage. The band are no slouches either, each sporting an impressive resume of studio and touring gigs, and giving Greenwood just the backbone she needs to do her thing. But Greenwood is really the star here, the primary writer and mastermind behind this group. At a recent gig at Arlene’s Grocery on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, GSX had all audience members in attendance in full submission, hair flying, fists pumping, bodies moving. More people need to go see this band. My words can’t do them justice.” - MetalSucks.net - Metal Suck dot net


"GSX Featured in Daily Rock (CH)"

“Fronted by the charming and charismatic Sarah Greenwood (who was born in Nyon [Switzerland], for the record), GSX and it's furious "Manifest" alternate between heaviness and power in these 8 tracks, 8 power hits, which might be reminiscent of Juliette and the Licks' fierceness and haunted side, or Melissa auf der Maur's sensitivity. Strong personalites, just like their music - no coincidence. Give yourself a big treat and get into "Manifest" without restraint from beginning to end!” - Daily Rock (Switzerland) - Daily Rock, Switzerland
