Sounds Like
"Mother of Curses is a post-punk kitchen-sink masterpiece... Is it too early to pick my favorite album of the year?"
-ALTERNATIVE PRESS

"...D. Rider is expanding the boundaries of what a rock band can sound like while maintaining it's credibility. The hypnotic continuity of their debut work is unexpected and requires the listener to think newly upon what they expect from independent music these days."
-CMJ

"D. Rider does weird in an entirely new way. This debut album seethes with a syncopated sexuality that hasn't been heard for some time..."
-SKYSCRAPER MAGAZINE

"... an avatar of 21st century visionary rock and roll music."
-THE REGLAR WIGLAR Record Review

"...superb debut..."
-CHICAGO READER

"A complex album built on overlapping rhythms, Mother Of Curses is a pleasure to wrap your ears around. D. Rider has created one of the first great rock efforts of 2009."
