Sounds Like

...the last received signal from a satellite burning up on re-entry...


"But the day’s real revelations lurked on the smaller stages, notably the eight-piece orchestral rockers Revere, who combine the fiery melodrama of Muse with the rousing chamber-pop of Arcade Fire. They could, and should, be huge"
The Times

"An extraordinary widescreen technicolor epic of a song...a stunning single by a stunning band..."
Tom Robinson, BBC6

"The Escape Artist is probably one of the grandest pieces of music you will hear this year, haunting and performed to the highest of standards…I am in awe of the beauty of the piece"
Insiders Guide

"Revere are a band who provide almost the perfect soundtrack. This eight piece London outfit manage to go from strength to strength with each and every release"
UK Music Review

"A kaleidoscopic mess of noise, intensity and harmony - worth checking out"
Subba-Cultcha

"Wow, this is what I call epic stuff…a bit like Nick Cave meets Arcade Fire meets Sigur Ros!! Big sound, big songs, big excitement!! And, big future, hopefully!"
Toxic Pete

"Can't wait to hear more from this band…they could be one of the best finds of the year"
Is This Music

"Warm waves of shimmering, beautiful yet dramatic music"
Loud Horizon Music

"Wonderful post rock in the vein of Sigur Ros and Arcade Fire"
Die Shellsuit, Die!

"Gospel for the space-age generation..."
The Times

"Beautifully unpredictable..."
MOJO Magazine

"One of the best bands you've never heard of..."
The Guardian Weekend

"Stuff this special and so uninterfered with doesn't come along often."
Manchester Music

"A bold and beguiling mix of klezmer, post-rock, gospel and soundtracks."
Time Out

"An understated smoker..."
Record Collector

"One of the most intriguing bands on the circuit..."

Hi Stephen, greetings from Peru. Thanks for the add and the comment! The Escape Artist is epic, absolutely brilliant; I literally stopped everything I was doing when I heard you guys perform it on Tom's show so I could have a better listen. I was really impressed by your performance, so I added the album version to my myspace profile player for a few weeks. Can't wait for your album to come out!!! Luckily for me, I found the Union Chapel show and some other of your songs on Last.fm.

Cheers!

Alvaro
