"A delightful cemetery-and-western fusion that manages
to combine the heaviest, pitch-black Goth tradition with rockabilly Americana."
--Doktor John | The Aquarian
"With a voice as heartfelt as Michael Stipe's and a soul in the vein of Johnny Cash New York's Ninth House tears away the conventions of what gothic music is expected to be...a blend of gothic rock and undertones of country are what greets listeners on this powerful and delightful record "
--North east In Tune
"They're a dark band and they bring that across in thier music with a brilliance
that rivals no one."
--Lithium Radio
"It’s a really good album and the majority of songs get better every listen. Impressive."
--Mick Mercer
"While dark a lot of the time, the music glitters and jangles in the right places, and fills up the cracks and crevices left by the vocal performance. And what a vocal performance."

Ninth House is a New York City band that plays a distinctive blend of dark rock, and alt-country, managing to blend influences as varied as Johnny Cash and The Cure to produce their haunting and unforgettable sound.
The band was created in 1998 by singer/songwriter Mark Sinnis (bass, vocals). Francis Xavier plays drums, Dave Sussmann plays guitar and Matthew Dundas is the keyboardist. Ninth House has three full length CDs to date. The first release, “Swim In The Silence” featured the single “Injury Home” which appeared on the Fox TV show “ANGEL”.
In 2005, the band released their 2nd album, “The Eye That Refuses to Blink”. Their CD, “Realize And It’s Gone”, was released in June 2007 and features the Johnny Cash classic “Ghost Riders In The Sky".
Ninth House remains active playing the New York City music circuit and have built a devoted following. All of Ninth House's music is available through Seattle-based indie Label SINister Records or 9th Recordings.
