Press Reviews Roger Catlin, now of the Hartford Courant, but previously of the Omaha World Herald, described J. LeRoy's music as disturbing.Chris Zorn, Emory University: "Myths" rocks. I tell everybody: "Myths rocks. Go visit MP3/JLeroy." They do so. ---- J. Leroy is part Laurie Anderson and part chemistry major who breaks into the lab in the middle of the night and experiments with chemical reactions. "Myths of Wonder" is ambient, unique, different and what happens in music when you split atoms in a vacuum. Definitely of the more unique artists on MP3. (independent)- Radio Stonewall, MP3.com
