REVIEWS
"Awash in sleepy, swirling vocals and dreamy delay, invokes Spiritualized as much as Floyd. An unforgettable band." - Doug Levy, College Music Journal
"Whether the band's music is climbing to weighty wall-of-sound rock crescendos on 'Life and Illusion', or is curling up in spooky, langourous folds of sonic silk, its depth and beauty is hard to ignore." - Rolling Stone Online
"If an established genius like, say, Beck or Dylan shaped a disc as lovely and accomplished as Phaser's debut, "Sway," it would be hailed as a career pinnacle. The D.C.-based indie rock quartet has created a staggering album filled with sultry symphonic shoegazer rock, rousing gospel-folk, forgivable Pink Floydian noodlings and classic piano balladry. Call it a career breakthrough." - Linda Laban, Boston Herald
What is the state of this band? Has Dead Heart Bloom put a knife in Phaser? I enjoy both tremendously but still curious as to whether or not Phaser is technically even a band anymore. Can someone please answer this for me?
i saw you guys play a couple years ago at record shop in roanoke va, called "safe as milk records" a couple of years ago and have been a fan ever since! thanks for the add!

"Sway this way with me..." The Think Tank loves that song! Shane Vendrell and Mara Sewell have good taste to make it their song. The Think Tank also loves "Baby Blue" and all the others on your record.
I've been a fan for a couple of years now. I have to say that one of my favorite shows of 2004 was your April show at Iota. Brilliant. Looking forward to seeing you this year... Playing anytime soon?
