Press Reviews
"Don´t know if there is anything better than being totally surprised by music. I´ve played this single over and over again, I just don´t seem to get enough of listening to BUREK V. This Stockholm trio´s two-song single on Rhythm Ace Records, makes you forget about other music for awhile. "Carry No Evil" gets right to you, and produces shivers everytime the singer utters the words. The other song "Too Happy Now", almost is even better. It sounds home-recorded, with the drum-machine, the evil-sparse guitar, but most of all, the vocals, which completely takes over. Music on the verge of something, but you just don´t know to what. Wonderful !" Jonas Elgemark, GROOVE, Swedens leading musicpaper.--------- "New swedish band added. No rock this time, but a fine mix between Grifters (one of their favourite bands) Guided By Voices and the like. Catchy lo-fi pop that deserves more attention here, there and everywhere. There´s a 10" just out, but I only know their 7" and that one easily comes recommended" GRUNNENROCKS, THE NETHERLANDS. -------- "More interesting are Burek V with a new two-track 7" with sizzling guitars flying around somewhere between Dinosur Jr and Guided By Voices. A rocking gem." 101 MAGAZINE, SWEDEN "MAKES ME WANT TO CLOSE THE GARAGE DOOR ON THE BAND AND LEAVE THE ENGINE RUNNING" FOLKBLADET. "A VERY PERSONAL BAND. LIKE AN OUT OF TUNE TOM PETTY" E-KURIREN. |
