Dan Gill, journalist and blogger for Melbourne’s hip threethousandsound.com.au music/arts/culture blog came across The Videomatics and wrote the following:

“The perfect antidote to a decade of soulless electro, of parties but no pain. If Patrick Bateman took a sabbatical from butchering innocents and hoovering Bolivia’s GDP to discover Ric Ocasek, Intense Wear Lipstick might have been his Aha! moment. Genius, obviously”

Melbourne journalist, and author of books such as “50 Years of Rock in Australia” and “Ego is Not a Dirty Word – the Skyhooks Story”, had this to say about The Videomatics track “Intense Wear Lipstick”:

“A marvellous melange of 80’s inspired pop.. one of the singles of the year.”

Channel [V] (Fox TV) music presenter and blogger, Jane Gazzo, featured the then “studio project” The Videomatics on her 2009 music blog, alongside other hotly tipped buzz bands. Here’s what she had to say:

“They say they’re from Brisbane, sometimes Glasgow. Whatever that means. Regardless, they make synth-based electro pop not unlike Ladytron or Ladyhawke. From what I can gather, they seem influenced by British music, sculpture and, erm, synthesizers.. I’m drawn to their tune Intense Wear Lipstick – perfect pop of epic poetry proportions.”
