    Press Reviews
    From Fracture #15, Mar/Apr 2001: For a debut release this is mighty impressive stuff. Combining the driving quasi-pop riffola of say later period BRAID with some KARATE style musical noodlings, they manage to come up with a sound that is original-yet-somehow-familiar. The vocals are distinctive, the playing tight and the song structures complex yet not so much as to completely alienate those of a melody and tune persuasion. There's good production on these four songs, and "Cold Air Car" comes out as my firm favourite, but all of the songs work tremendously well, and they can only get better with more shows and increased confidence. Musicianship is of the highest order. This is very good, and I have a feeling they'll be making a name for themselves very shortly, so take note.
