   About Film School
.

Layered, dark pop bliss.
-XLR8R magazine

As always, the sound is epically mammoth and sinister.
-Under the Radar Magazine

"CD of the Month"
- Performer Magazine's October 2007

Among the elite in the groundswell of acts finding more than a passing fascination with reinterpreting shoegazer's walls of distortion and hyper-stylized melodies.
-Aversion Magazine

Its the kind of album that dares you to roll up your car windows, crank it and be swallowed whole.
-Kevin Bronson, LA Times

With so many bands trying to relive the glory days of My Bloody Valentine, Jesus And Mary Chain and Galaxie 500, it's nice to see that somebody out there has done it right; not becoming a copy-cat, but making it truly their own.
- The Tripwire

Number 1 new music pick in Nitewise
- SF Live 105 music director Aaron Axelsen

Gorgeous and dreamy shoegaze songs that are so perfectly dynamic and cinematic, all you have to do is close your eyes and let your mind take you anywhere you want to go."
- The Stranger

They’ve been threatening to craft an album of great psych anthems since the early 2000s, and this is it.
-Three Imaginary Girls.com

One of the most successful bands to translate the species known as shoegaze in the 21st century, this Los Angeles-based troupe combines ethereal vocals with swirling guitars to create songs that are nothing short of transporting.

..
..I belief in
artgeneering...

the artist is only a medium,connected to the spirits around him-

translating vibes into symbolic shapes to reinitialize the ancient way
of using language...

the way of light and color...

without the disguise of words,right through the passage of our eyes...

to reach hearts and souls without taking the intelectual loop way...

natural formulas in an unnatural world...pure and uncensored...

awakening the visiual awareness, the centre of our inner universe...

to let it shine in the way it has allways been before these annoying
times,

that keep us away from our natural mission...

to stay connected with our great mother earth and her deep spirit of
freedom and peace...

we have to regain our nearly lost nativeness,

to stop this wheel of opression and iniquity that haunts our world and
our hearts...it's time for the rainbow warriors :-)
