"I've been talking about Black Nite Crash since I saw them close out the Northwest Shoegazers Nite. They've built songs that hypnotize with their enveloping guitar swirls, resonating vocals, and impenetrable rhythmic tidal waves. The result is songs that fill an empty room and stun.".. .. ..The Stranger Weekly...... "…Fans of the Jesus and Mary Chain, the Pixies, and the Church will find the four-piece proudly wear their influences on their guitar strings, churning out fuzzy melodies and moody kickers… Even with the heavy saturation of common au currant cornerstones, BNC produced a winning EP, one that wraps you in a heavy gauze of brooding atmospherics without weighing down the steadily accelerating tempos in the songs."
