“Loyal Divide creates the most compellingly textured music
I've heard from a new artist in some time.”
-3hive.com
"Loyal Divide's "Labrador EP" is filled with layers of quirky electronic bits, which are paired nicely with soft and admissible vocals, and then crunched together by industrial drum programming. There's plenty of gated-synth action, reminiscent of Animal Collective's trance-inducing polyrhythmic backbone. You can hear this in "Vision Vision," as they bump to a two-steppin' hip-hop beat that has roots in early 2000's club jams."

“...it demands to be listened to. ..a blend of familiar styles
with a wide-appeal. ..Something I can get behind.”
-Antler Darts Music Blog
“From the crunchy stomp of "Young Blades" to the squealing
electro vibrations of "Labrador" to the angelic shuffle of the
closer "Vision Vision", this EP will move you.”
-Gapers Block Chicago
“a curious, slow-burning sound that glides along via atmospheric synths and subtly layered vocals”
-CityBeat
