In the press
“Their most artistic project to date ... Mangum's voice has never sounded better, and he sings the songs with a new, torchy sensuality ... Illmensee's jangly, jagged pop hooks recall the Cure without being overtly retro. it's hard to figure out the reference points in Boneanchor's dark, slinky, groove-rock. And that's part of the allure.” – Kate Bredimus, Richmond.com
”Boneanchor scrapes across the stygian floors of of a rock and roll ocean ... Elvis is there. Prince, too. Johnny Cash has a little table in the back corner. A whole gang of bluesmen are sitting right up front. And it's hard to tell if Boneanchor wants to shake hands or fight ... if you get a chance to get in the room with them, you'd have to be deaf, dumb, and blind not to walk away affected.” – Jason Olsen
“Never discount the power of the fontman in rock 'n' roll – especially when he's given the do-or-die mission of converting a crowd of skeptical bar patrons into true believers Think about it: Do you have any doubt that even an unkown James Brown could sway the most rigid crowd? Elvis Presley? David Lee Roth? Not for a second – these are the type of larger-than-the-stage personalities that music legends are made of ... it's the outlandishly satisfying frontman behavior of Wrenn Mangum that keeps the suspicious minds at bay.” – Ryan Muldoon, Richmond Times-Dispatch
