"Keram Malicki-Sanchez is on stage and all dressed up with every place to go. The boys a psychedelic vision...a one-man cultural blitzkrieg, active in music, theatre, film, philosophy, writing and publishing. Fans of his band Blue Dog Pict are enthusiastic to the point of being cultish."
- Lenny Stoute - Toronto Star
Editor's Pick: "Keram Malicki-Sanchez brings rare songs with angular melodies and blipping sonics. Combine one part hipster presence, one part folky sensitivity, and one part electronic experimentation, and you've got a musical chameleon in the best David Bowie tradition.
Malicki-Sanchez describes "The Endster" as "the first-ever song about your Friendster addiction." -download.com
"There are a rare breed of people who are not merely artistic but ultra-artistic. Not merely content to be in a band, they have too many ideas for one project. They play music, they write, they make films, they act, they paint, do any of a hundred other things, and they do them all with various degrees of skill that would make the less talented person sick. LA-based Keram Malicki-Sanchez appears to be one of those people.
Keram blends styles indiscriminately, mixing rock, new-wave, electronic experimentation, and pure, catchy, hook-laden pop all at once. At times, it sounds remarkably similar to other, well-established musicians, while at other times it takes on the truly unique feel he was obviously pursuing.
" - Jeff Marsh, delusions of Adequacy
Reviews for Keram's acoustic album "BOX":
"Keram has made what has to be one of the most compelling albums of this last year. Any one of these 9 cuts could conceivably make it onto rotation; pick up a copy of this album and learn who Keram is before everyone else does." - NeuFutur Magazine
"Box is an acoustic collection of ballads, rich in self exposure and warmth of tone and soul. When not contemplating the twists and turns of affairs of the heart, Keram settles heavily on the theme of death. Whatever life-altering incident caused his subdued yet noticeable cynical disposition to surface may have altered how he pictured the world, but it brings out an intense determination that gets infused into his music." - Pitch Perfect Reviews
"What is perhaps most unique about Keram (other than the fact that he seems to have grown up listening to every radio station) is that where many musicians who record electronica tend to over-use effects to mask their voices, Keram allows his voice to shine no matter what style he is working in. With a Brian Wilson-esque love of experimenting with new sounds, layers and modulations, Keram leaves no room for predictability in anything he does. " - Jamey Bresden, The Deli Magazine

Keram Malicki-Sanchez former front-man and creator of bands Blue Dog Pict, Automated Gardens, Blue Rose Harlots and Project; Ribcage also has a comprehensive solo music career where he operates under the simple moniker "Keram."
His musical output is a slippery fish that belies deeper intellectual undercurrents than one may detect upon a first listen. Rife with self-conscious, culture-jamming and otherwise socially analytical innuendo, the material often wraps itself with indelibly catchy and au-currant (but likely tongue-in-cheek) song-forms, while lyrically retracing its footsteps with pathological tenacity along the path of stark darkness towards spiritual purification and self-awareness.
