Press Reviews
"All the music comes through clear and would sound great with the volume at 11...Bottom line, the band is tight and knows how to rock."Metromix, demolisten"The musicians all sound like seasoned pros,especially vocalist Ivy. Echosend makes nice pop...The fluctuation between pretty ballads and almost gothic influenced heavier tracks makes for a nice mix and complement each other surprisingly well...The musicians on this EP are rock solid, riffs are catchy, solos tasteful, the percussion and bass are virtuosic without being too showy. Moody electronic interludes seperate the tracks giving the album the strange feeling of being a soundtrack for some lost film."Chicago Gigs.com,CD review |
