"How good are Holoscene? So good that their debut EP, Nothing Is The End of Everything, has made me rethink my feelings towards post-rock as a whole ...like Do Make Say Think or Mogwai or Explosions in the Sky or any other band that's mastered the style -- they're able to shift tempos and volumes so well that they make what they do sound transcendent..."

"Listening to Holoscene prior to their show could not prepare me for what I witnessed that night. Holoscene played a set of surreal, ambient and serene soundscapes that melded their way into furious crescendos of rock. The crowds at the Velvet became hypnotized by Holoscene's set.
At times it became so quiet you could hear a pin drop. No one said a word during their set as they were locked into the moods and emotions that the band was creating. This is the kind of band you have to experience live. Keep posted for our interview with Holoscene."
- Toronto Music Scene Review of NXNE 2008
"...one of the best debuts of the last decade"
- The Belleville Intelligencer
"This is post-rock in all its large-gesture glory, and it's more Led Zeppelin than any band particularly big at the moment."
- Dan Raper, PopMatters, 2007
"“Death Machine” is in demo state — thanks, Holoscene, because I love it. I’ve liked stuff by Holoscene before, but I find the raw condition of this distant, melancholy postrock study gives it a vital human skin and pulse"
- Warren Ellis
"The theme tonight at The Boat was sonic ambiance colliding with sheer power. Holoscene is an ocean of heavenly tides and crashing waves, a cascading cosmic force that draws on spiritual elements to be-at-one with the musical experience. A harmonious soul-merging of that journey, the conflict, the struggle, the dissonance, a post-rock odyssey blending the dialectic ebbs-and-flows of life. "
