Bio
"The New York-based underground rockers of Please Dept. aren't likely to convert the unenlightened to the indie aesthetic; what they have here in VOMIT OF LIGHT is the epitome of the DIY philosophy -- a low-fi, deeply quirky, and highly unpredictable recording rooted in a twisted, unique vision." -Ink 19. .."A FAST ONE ON JULIAN substitutes the conventional guitar, bass and drum dynamic for a more stripped down yet progressive electronic aura that co-exists with squeezebox joy. Please Dept. waste no time in getting straight to their own self-deprecating brand of educated pop.... In a borough brimming with first rate talent, Please Dept. are aiming to be the next big thing." -Treblezine. .."The double keyboard assault I was ready for, the dueling drum volleys I most certainly was not. On record the songs are bizarre and theatrical, but in concert they were total synth punk. A vastly underrated New York band." -Merry Swankster. .."A FAST ONE ON JULIAN is an eleven-song beckon to the dance floor ...replete with shimmer, swagger and charm to spare. It's pop that pops, with spiky electronic peaks, bursts of caffeinated bounce and manic keyboard flourishes." -Nerd Litter.
