  • Bio

    ...... ...... .... .. .... .. .... ....REVIEWS:.. ...... .."The album’s arrangements, too, are perfect in their structures and timing. The listener is lulled into each track’s sound and allowed to enjoy it just long enough, before being caught off guard by a switch to something new, that while is completely different, still manages to keep with the overarching mood.." -..Interrobang - Nov. 2, 2009 - London, Ontario........ .."...their cinematic instrumentals combine the sweeping beauty of composer Ennio Morricone's dusty soundtracks with the fluttery arpeggios and romantic melancholy of European gypsy-folk, with dark dashes of post-rock's hypnotic precision for good measure. Sort of East Meets West Meets The Future in The Past, if that makes sense. Listen to this three-cut EP and it will." -..Winnipeg Sun Media - September 2009 - Winnipeg, Manitoba........ .."From the riding-high tones of Ghost of a Thousand Battles to the graceful and spellbinding Cathedral of Leaves and finally the haunting and masterfully conceived War, each epic track is loaded with atmospheric tension and beautiful dramatic intensity." - ..Stylus Mag - University Of Winnipeg - Oct. 2009 - Winnipeg, Manitoba,........ .."The E.P. rolls on and, like the score of a Sergio Leonne flick, peters in and out of catchy gallops, slow builds and dramatic surges...it’s a fantastic album, particularly for those fans of Joanna Newsom or Black Mountain..." -..The Manitoban - University of Manitoba - Sept 2009 - Winnipeg, Manitoba........
