PRESS:

"The Assembly are some of the most talented local musicians I've heard in a while, sounding confident and convincing throughout 'The Tide Has Turned.'"
-Chicago Examiner review of The Tide Has Turned

"The self-described electro-rockers hum with energy that at times is moody and atmospheric and at other times forges straightahead with guitar-driven alternative rock, tied together with a polished David Bowie-like vocal delivery"
-Illinois Entertainer review of The Tide Has Turned

"Viewed panoramically, the album makes total sense, and carries us on a journey from our inward selves into the outer world."
-Chicagoist review of The Tide Has Turned

"...a direct example of the select few good independent bands coming out with superb music from Chicago."
-One Kind Radio review of The Tide Has Turned

"I bet it’d even get a smile out of the goths dancing at Neo."
-Chicago Reader review of The Tide Has Turned

"The vocal delivery, haunting and echoed, matched with the hook-heavy songwriting, makes the band instantly accessible without sounding derivative (The Smiths are there, sure, but so is some heroin-chic). This is a band to watch."
-New City Chicago

"Check out what industry insiders already know. This ain't your little brother's Warped Tour pop. This is the real shit, and it just might give you a toothache it's so sweet..."
-Q101's Local 101

"...one more musical entity for Chicagoans to be damn proud of reminding others 'They're from Chicago.'"
-Illinois Entertainer

"...their sound is more tailored for the thousands of cheering crowds flooding international music festivals than it is for the small stages of local Chicago clubs..."
-Chicagoist.com

"All tunes are first rate, helping cement the group's growing reputation as one of the tastier morsels presently available on the local music smorgasbord."
-Illinois Entertainer review of Paranoia Will Destroya

"These guys have it...they're gonna be stars."
-Q101's Crash Test Radio
