Sounds Like
The echo of a voice in a cold empty room...
"Spine-tingling sublime portraits of love travels. Shimmer and shake and heartquakes translated through voice and guitar and organized noise and beats too. Sonic glue to put back together the porcelain pieces of the recently departeds."
~ MACHIN-E, 2006.
You tell us. What do we sound like?!?!
We've been told: Blonde Redhead, Denali, The Knife, The Cure, Joanna Newsom, Dream 6, Deerhoof, and Siouxsie...
all ages! Dresden Dolls w/ MayStar. Doors at 6:30pm
Also playing the Local 94/9 show at the Casbah. 21+ Free! Doors at 7pm
And all the other voices said....
"Way to bring in a presence and a presentation.
The way (MayStar) opened (their) set with the dropcloth/projection screen in front that was then backlit so as to create these abstract animation-like silhouetted ethereal beings...was...striking. Kind of slow-moving, painterly impressions, almost stick figures, well, really cool to my eye(s).
(They) have visuals and vision.
And that's all that without mentioning the sounds emanated.
Spine-tingling sublime portraits of love travels. Shimmer and shake and heartquakes translated through voice and guitar and organized noise and beats too. Sonic glue to put back together the porcelain pieces of the recently departeds.
~ T, MACHIN-E, 2006.
"As yet unsigned to a record label, she has one of the most painfully bittersweet voices I have heard since Johnette Napolitano circa her Dream 6 days...I warn you in advance, the song 'She Always Laughs (at the Most Horrible Things)' will stick in your head and you'll find yourself humming it all night long. Not a bad thing."
- RC Edrington
of Spentmeat.com
"The mood tickled my spine."
~ Thomas, www.thomasphillip.com
"If you like your indie to be raw, stripped down, and too overly intelligent for it's own good, then you should give a listen to this duo. Between the costume changes of vocalists May's clothing that she designed, lighting, stage props and the acted out songs, this bands live show is mezmerizing. Keep an eye on this band."
~DJ Narcolept, Faction-6, Artist Exposure.
