"Drop Your Sword is full of energetic hooks, jangly tambourine, and deliberately jarring feedback (not to mention hecka guitar in the spotlight). It's a little shoegazey and a lot playful." - AURAL WES
"Warm and tender Shoegaze from Boston." - The Last Pop Song
"Debutto coi fiocchi per questi ragazzi di Boston che hanno impiegato più di un anno prima di dare alle stampe Drop The Sword. Il progetto parte da un amore incondizionato verso l'intensità sonora tipica dell'età d'oro del feedback con il cantato però che si deve sentire ." - Discheria ElRocco
"In this time where you can’t listen to an indie rock album from the start to finish, this is a surprising non-skipper." - undomondo
"I really love that song He Sailed Away. The tone of everything is beautiful, that bass sound is hot, that guitar tone is hot, the vocals are so good and they are always climbing and when they reach the top it's like I gotta bust my nut, the harmonies near the end are great, the pentatonic shit is so hot, the break down is great, the tune is catchy and musical as fuck, and it makes me happy." - WSUM
"What attracted me to Day Sleeper was simply a sort of vibe they gave off... an album that's better than some of the popular indie artists out there..." - AWMusic.ca
"他们的曲子糅合着温暖与清凉，亲切而又感伤。" - from summer...
"At first I thought to write even more comparisons with the names (heard on the drive much), but then I decided this: we can say that this is a classic example of modern American shugeyza." - "In The Trojan Wall of Sound (Russia)"
"Magnifique. J'adore. A passer et repasser en boucle sans s'arrêter.
Mon couuuuup de coeuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur !!!!!" - StillNoChange
Free Digital Download of Batching It's entire debut album "Homage"!
With the delay of the arrival of the CD, I decided it was more important to get the music out there and on those iPods sooner than later, so please enjoy on the house the entire Homage album, in high quality mp3 format.
