Cruel Black Dove - Full Powers

asd



... well crafted and perfectly produced... one of those rare moments we find a diamond... some of the most polished tracks from an unsigned band that we've heard this year... one of Brooklyn's best kept musical secrets.
(Thetripwire.com)


... PJ Harvey if Kevin Shields and Massive Attack were the backing band, having consulted Trent Reznor on the backbeat.
(Digitalheroine)


...sex, spite, angst, hurt and revolution.
(RCRD LBL)


... a buzz-worthy female-fronted electronic rock outfit who set the stage on fire with their blend of passionate, hard hitting Lynch-esque music. Comparisons to PJ Harvey, Curve, and Depeche Mode aren't inappropriate, but Cruel Black Dove is still a force of their own, full to the brim with infectious sound and fury. Slinking back and forth in perfect rhythm, adding to the mood with ominous red lighting, fuzzed out bass, and a knack for on-stage exorcism, part Nick Cave, part Patti Smith, and all unpredictable ferocity. I was floored.
(Limewire)

... dark (and immensely sexy) electronic art rock.
(Xiaoting L., The Deli Magazine)

... dark and electronic-tinged big rock sound, with complimentary light show, provided quite a spectacle... Anastasia has an impressive presence...
(StereoactiveNYC)

... a uniquely hypnotic sound characterized by an eerie, electro backdrop accompanied by strangely soulful vocals... with influences ranging from Morrissey to Bjork, the band’s peculiar sounds come together as a brilliantly rhythmic mixture of industrial, disco and indie rock.
(Alexandria Jones, The Deli Magazine)

Sounds of slinky greatness.
(Rachael Yamagata)

We LOVED hearing you guys on WNYE's B-sides! Took us a while to find a streaming link (we're in Seattle). But once we did, it was so awesome to hear the in studio performances and the interview (maybe next time Shirley will say something too. hehe).

Anyway, just reminding you that you are loved out here on the left coast. We told many friends about this radio appearance and they were excited to tune in. We are DYING to see you live someday. Keep doing what you're doing. Please!
