InfluencesHerschel Walker
Sounds Like"[Gift Horse] has the sprawling abstract noise rock thing nailed down pretty solidly, though it never really lets the songs get too far out to remain compelling. Gift Horse put on a heck of a show...These fellas delivered one of my grander sonic adventures for the past couple of months, and I definitely recommend them to the curious. They could open for just about anyone in the public musical eye at present and hold their own, if not steal the show."
-Flagpole

"Sure to take listeners back to the day of rock lore and re-establish the sound we all frantically, whether consciously or unconsciously, seek."
-BLUR Magazine

"Filled with heavy, exploding drum beats and a magical, ethereal blending of guitar, bass, and keys, Gift Horse has the ability to draw you in, capture your mind, and compel your imagination. Their songs carry menacing undertones and floating vocals that at once pick you up and mellow you out. Each melody offers a climax, backed by raging cymbals, which give way to atmospheric organ tones preparing you for the next climax and back around again."
-The Silver Tongue

The Deuce Creme Projecte is the culmination of one man's vision, and
two other men's visions, too. Out of fucking nowhere comes something
that wasn't even there before, and YOU WILL BE CHANGED FOREVER. Sit
back and shut up but you don't need to put on your seatbelt because
you're not even in a car or anything. This ride is on the Deuce train,
BABY!
