Press Reviews "Negotiating the fine line between madness and sheer lunacy, Dave Lovelace concocts an electro-progressive cocktail of epic proportions on this, his debut disc, Parallax. 'umop apisdn' comes highly recommended." Greg Kampf, La Villa Strangiato, CHUO 89.1 FM, Ottawa, Canada "Parallax was the very first track we played on our new transmitter." Mark DeLorenzo, WWUH, Hartford, CT "Hey, I have to tell you that VTE sounds KILLER on my car's Bose stereo system. It's a testament to the disc's production, which exceeds that of many major label releases I've heard recently." Kevin Ryan, houseofshred.com, Hartford, CT
