Influences	yes
Sounds Like	"a sense of naivety underwritten by an arch pop awareness...epic flights of melancholy pop, flavoured with vintage soft-rock and Americana" Wire Magazine "(Highly Recommended) Brian Wilson's legacy shimmers through the songs of The Silent League, which uses a few musicians to create grandly expansive orchestral pop." New York Times "expansive and epic" The Sun "Russo's Flaming Lips-like vision of indie chamber music is now fully realized…the budding promise of their debut blooming into something truly uplifting" Q Magazine "takes The Silent League's widescreen voyage further...majesterial" NME "Justin Russo casts another spell with his bewitching side project, The Silent League...will leave you craving more" The Guardian "After touching on that elusive Mercury Rev/Flaming Lips sense of grace on impressive 2005 mini-album The Orchestra, Sadly, Has Refused, Brooklyn's The Silent League blossom on this beautifully delicate follow-up....This goes beyond cred-by-association into a realm of sad loveliness." Chris Roberts, Uncut "Importantly[,] the orchestra joyfully acquiesced....with elegiac piano and vocals that echo Wayne Coyne....[The Silent League] create a lush expansive orchestral pop record...sublime." Rolling Stone
