Press Reviews "Drifts in the universe between Radiohead's introspection and My Bloody Valentine's aggressive power"- The State Newspaper An attempt to describe this quartet probably goes along the lines of "They play indie rock, but...". For example, consider the following. SKNS play indie rock, but they don't rely on evolving dissonance so much as intelligent use of their instruments. They play indie rock, but include interesting keyboard textures that move them into unique territory. They play indie rock, but Susan Margolis and Ken DuBard's vocals move them closer to the art school sound of Throwing Muses. You get the idea? There is no denying the category this band should be filed under, but they defy the limits of that notion at every turn. This is a very strong debut and should be checked out by anyone who's ever said, "Indie rock is okay, but..." -- rd www.splendidezine.com june 10, 2001 "Science Knows No Sin combines a sort of art school guitar churn with an educated glance at what used to be called shoegazer music"- The Columbia Free Times "Led by vocalist Susan Margolis (who also plays guitar, bass and cello), Science Knows No Sin takes inspiration from all over the underground rock spectrum, from contemporary bands like Blonde Redhead to early '90's fare such as My Bloody Valentine, Lush and Pale Saints. Their first full-length CD, Distance Holds Your Mystery has remained a staple locally on WUSC."- The Columbia Free Times "Art rock sensibilities, punk attitude and bewitching melodies make this group one of Columbia's most promising"- The State Newspaper "Distance Holds Your Mystery is a confident and musical, if slightly retro, nod to esoteric rock. You can sense the rock and roll beast thundering at the band's core, but it rarely rears its head. Still, Science Knows No Sin proves here that it is a force to be reckoned with not only in Columbia's slowly awakening independent music scene but also - almost certainly - on a national level."- Drawer B Media www.drawerb.com
