well, critics have said stuff like this about our previous releases:
"Anyone who wants to be challenged and excited by music should own this record" (Rip it Up Magazine)/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"Much of the record is so revelatory it is as close as we may now ever come to knowing the first carnally inspired performances of headstruck post-punk-rockers Sonic Youth, Swervedriver, PIL, Slint, Husker Du and Fugazi" (Beat magazine)//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
"When i heard Love of Diagrams wailing ut of my CD player sounding so much like the scratchy muffled strains of Siouxsie Sioux on my beloved cassette i wept.." (Lucky Magazine)/////////////////////////////////////////////////
"All we need now is for them to grind with DFA and we'd have our sixth major religion. it is that good." (Vice Magazine) /////////////////
"The repeat button was invented for albums like this...." (Oz Music Project)///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////But y'know critics, NO IDEA
LOVE OF DIAGRAMS are a band from Melbourne, Australia. We started playing shows in 2001, recorded a (mostly instrumental) debut album 'The Target is You' in 2003. In 2004 we released an EP 'We Got Communication" (which came out as a 7" in the UK on The Passport Label) which included the introduction of vocals from all three members. In late 2006 an EP came out on Unstable Ape records in Australia, and in early 2007, the first world-wide release on Matador Records was a s/t EP. In may 2007 the album MOSAIC, recorded at Electrical Audio Studios in Chicago with Bob Weston, was released on Matador Records. In late 2008, we recorded a new album NOWHERE FOREVER with Ryan Hadlock (Gossip, Blonde Redhead, Steve Malkmus etc) at Bear Creek Studios in Seattle. This album is due out in Australia on Unstable Ape/Remote Control in August 09, with an international release yet to be confirmed....tours to be announced shortly!!
