Quick the Word, Sharp the Action is the fourth studio album by English alternative rock band Hundred Reasons, released on 15 October 2007, on V2.

The album was recorded in Riga, Latvia, and is the first to feature guitarist Ben Doyle, following the departure of founding member Paul Townsend in 2006.

[8] Planned b-sides for "No Way Back" - "Punctuality's Greatest Enemy" and "The Shredder (Astrocharger Mix)" - were offered free of charge from the band's website.

"[9] The band's management notes that: the sole reason QTWSTA is being re-issued is because, aside from the people who pre-ordered it, pretty much nobody knew it was out because V2 were bought out within ten days of it being released.

[11]Colin has said that "The re-release has allowed things to function with more control for the band, so we hope that over time it’s reached our audience.
