"Unpredictable, unique and one of the hottest unsigned bands in Liverpool"
NME
"Indica Ritual is a band we played with in the UK, and they totally blew me away with their live performance. I was watching them from the side and the band members were just waving back and forth like a bunch of sails. "Seamless Ejaculation" is a great track. "
Dustin from Ponytail
in his best of 2008 for Pitchfork.com
"Physically in Liverpool, where they've perfected a particularly picturesque strain of indie-dance.
Spiritually on a plain where the synths roam like caribou, nibbling guitar bushes and occasionally swimming in a river of beats"
Plan B Magazine
"Liverpool's best-kept secret announce themselves on 'My Night Tangle' - a song awash with John Carpenter-esque synth parts and guitar lines that seem willed from half-forgotten 80s bands. It's the sort of clever-clogs pop that can turn a city's secret into its calling card."
Drowned In Sound. com
"If you didn't know already, Indica take pointers from new wave legends Devo and Talking Heads, but by now have made their sound totally their own and a million miles from any other band in the UK currently.Talking Heads' David Byrne once sang about a band in 'Heaven', with Indica's amazing stage presence on Alma's altar, he may have prophesised about this band."
Daily Post
"Whether it be the jerky spak-pop of 'Num Lock' or 'Trade Show's' mathy spazz-outs, as audience and band merge into one, they're the best house party band ever. If you don't mind finding Ray Mysterio in your fridge and songs even Battles would find weird."
Probably not for a while as Sam's moving to New York for a bit- though I think there was some talk of a cheeky calli gig in the next couple of weeks. Will let you know.
This is the first set from the slightly tweaked Beach Fuzz line-up with Fliss Horrocks now playing guitar alongside Tom Settle and Nick Mitchell. Seven tracks of clattering drums, chugging and wailing guitars, screaming keyboards, mellow, lilting pastoral improv and moaned vocals.
