Sounds LikeCMJ New Music Monthly
The three members of Demander, perhaps New York City’s most boisterous, witty and good-natured group, have dug in deep at B-Side, a quaint but bombastic bar on the Lower East Side... The bar has become a second home, rally point and late-night rendezvous for a band devoid of an obvious scene affiliation. This is due primarily to their dizzyingly addictive sound...

   About Demander
Sivan and David met behind the snack bar at Villa Park High School in 1994. Karen and Sivan met in a band in 2001 that led them to another band in 2003 that led them to start of Demander in 2004. David and Karen met in New York many years after the previous two events, somewhere near 2008. Now they are all making a record. It's called Future Brite.

Deli Magazine
I like this band. Now I could approximate Demander's sound by describing the NYC trio as Tom Waits with surf rhythms and blistering female vocals, at times edging on melodicore, driving a speeding runaway train of adventure rock with vivid, emotive vocals. My roommate calls the band, "Yeah Yeah Yeahs on prog(?) pills, exuberant but kinda gloomy, Sergio Leone dramatics + NYC guitar rock." So I guess "cross-genre" would be an accurate descriptor; I feel guilty about making comparisons. Demander has its own sound, touching on so many different reference points – Las Vegas, Victorian London, Saturday morning cartoons, spaghetti westerns – that the band makes one question the point of criticism at all.

Meik!Meik! Blog It's music with sick beats, high energy, attitude, affection, and promise. Think of that feeling when you find $20 in your pocket, that's what Demander is.

Sentimentalist Magazine
This album is a live wire of smart arrangements and punched up vocals. Fronted by the dynamic Karen Correa and Sivan Harlap...this is a rolling freak out that sounds like a barroom brawl that’s been sliced up by siren wails and intellectual reasoning. Full of abrupt angles and bombastic overtones, this is a masterful accomplishment of a debut full-length.

Boston Metro
Singer and bassist Karen Kanan Correa delivers foreboding words in pretty melodies against an aggressive backdrop of Sivan Harlap's drums and Jared P. Scott's relentless riffs, but like her bandmates, she appears to be locked in a deep state of joy when performing these tunes.

Big Takeover Magazine
Locked-in playing, sophisticated songs, great melodies, adventurous songwriting and flawless production...teetering on the verge of amazing.

Royal Flush Magazine
A truly stunning achievement for a debut record...

Time Out New York
The dynamic outfit dazzles with angular off-time rock songs...which are publicly poppy but secretly proggy.
