    Press Reviews
    "snork maiden live in their own world where melodic pieces and uncomfortable, inner ear damaging pieces of noise can exist side by side, and swap betwixt the two at the blink of an eye". the mono january 18th 2002, so i'm told. "Taking their name from a character in Finnish fantasist Tove Jansson’s Moomin books, Newport’s Snork Maiden give the impression of some elusive profundity. Chucking in a few voguish Japanese aesthetic flourishes, they initially engage on this album, but swiftly hamstring themselves with a sense of calculated kookiness. There are far too many meandering moog glitches to capitalise on the potential of Eating Is Believing to be the very enjoyable knockabout album of amped-up electronica it promises to be on the first few tracks. BOB! slinks away on a smutty synth hum, sounding very much like the Pixies would if they got hold of some casios, with a processed woman’s vocals competing with terrific blasts of screeching, straight out of the Black Francis book of lung abuse. Plugged Into Nothing is another object lesson in sleazy alienation and could possibly find itself a very lucrative market in disaffected nu-metal fans looking for something a little more cerebral, sounding as it does like Billy Corgan after a night of watching porn previews. Less messing about and more of this would be great". Honk Magazine (eating is believing cd review (duh)).
