Press Reviews BAM: "Get a couple of veteran indie-rock musicians into a recording studio in the middle of the Mojave desert and who knows what to expect....Straddling the fine line between intriguing lo-fi and self-indulgent, experimental anti-songs, earthlings? evoke the raw bare-bones pop of early Guided By Voices and the heavily repetitive instrumental charm of late Unrest. Since they lean on spacey instruments....and '70s-era prog-rock indulgences, you might also hear Pink Floyd, Brian Eno, and various Kraut-rock bands too..... You can almost imagine these guys looking up at the dark night skies surrounded by stars, becoming one with the earth, letting the cold desert air permeate the music, flowing with the crazy space themes. Or maybe they just smoke a lot." -- James Oliver Cury
