The entire set was a mind-blowing, sample-tastic,synth-shimmering, teasingly-torrential guitar fuelled frenzy, which the crowd adored them for....' NIAMH DOLAN, HEINEKENMUSIC.IE
'...blends Mogwai with Kraftwerk...' *** KEVIN COURTNEY, THE IRISH TIMES

'Le Galaxie is God!' WWW.MUSIKENLIGTJERRY.SE
'...wholesome and gorgeous...' STATE MAGAZINE, www.state.ie
'The combined energy of any of the bands on Castlepalooza’s first day was nothing compared with the buzz from the crowd in the HMV tent for those 40 minutes...' CLUAS.COM, CASTLEPALOOZA REVIEW
'...for an instrumental synth band triggering sound bites about machines taking over they certainly can rock out. Guitars and synths that cascade and hey, surely techno geeknerds don’t rock out like this do they?...bubbling and synthing and jumping about and crowd participation amd alive like the heart of your nearest star. ...we’ll be back for more...'

'[We Bleed The Blood Of Androids] from loudly heralded Dublin space rockers Le Galaxie sounds like Mercury Rev fronted by Hal, the bonkers super-computer from 2001: A space odyssey. As eerie synths creak and guitars swoon and sigh, a (possible insane) robot chirrups menacingly in the foreground- all to goosebump-inducing effect. Please buy this and make them famous...” SINGLE OF THE WEEK, METRO
'...‘We Bleed The Blood of Androids’ manages to be about as intergalactic as the name suggests, a sodastream of audio that is bubbling with invention from start to finish...this is one of the few genuinely exciting acts to emerge from the capital this year. Catch them before they go supernova...' MP3HUGGER.COM
