"The perfect mix of goth and dance influences to accompany an Edwardian Ball, with enough organs and dark vocals to satisfy Castlevania fans."
- San Diego City Beat Magazine
"Their musical horizons stretch far beyond the threshold of modern rock. The Burning of Rome is a post-apocolypitic mash-up of meticulous orchestration, electronic manipulation and eccentric experimentation. If Danzig constructed a carnival ride, it'd look something like this."
- 944 Magazine
"Gypsy punk, rife with keys, rasping vocals and animated onstage antics."
- Paste Magazine
"What gothic music has come to in the new millennium. Recommend it for indie fans in general, especially those who appreciate keyboards and melody."
- Skratch Magazine
"A thrillingly eerie avant-garde seven-piece out of San Diego"
- Performer Magazine
“Music for the circus of the underworld - done in all the right ways.”
- San Diego City Beat Magazine
"The kind of songs that Danny Elfman would assemble as a soundtrack for the Technicolor birth of the spawn of Satan"
- San Diego City Beat Magazine
"The Burning of Rome’s style can not be forced into any known genre without taking shortcuts and over looking its originality. Its dark tones and circus like melodies intermingle into one spontaneous, yet entertaining work of musicianship."
- X1FM
Sound waves: turning voices. Quarteto vocal em ondas semi-controladas. Absurdo local e a periferia histórica. O "real" nasce da linguagem no preciso momento da percepção & feedback.
I'm sorry to have made empty promises; as MUCH as I want to see you guys on Sat (even though I thought it was on sunday) I realized that I am going to see Gogol Bordello at 4th and B (blah), however, I plan on leaving the show one or two songs before they are done in the hopes of making it to your guys' show. So please try and play as late as possible. As long as it doesn't mean cutting your set short of course.
Really? Chinese pop and religious?!? Thanks for a kickass show! Next time earlier for sure! I owe you 5 bucks cause I didn't realize I got the fancy CD w/ lyrics. Hit me up for some good pix, and I'd love the first album. editor@thelavender.com
