Sounds Like
"... I suspect that 99% of you will adore this album ("Baby Teeth")..."
- MICK MERCER (UK)
"... otherworldly, angst-ridden, haunting..."
- Coyote J. (legendary host of "The Edge Radio" WRZZ 99.5FM - USA)
"... this band is an interesting discovery... (Feeding Fingers) excels in the composition of quiet, melancholic new-wave tracks... A deep, melancholic mood hangs over the songs... This is the kind of music you had better avoid when having a bad day..."
-Side-Line Music Magazine (Brussels)
"...a true revelation to the ears of the undersigned... (Feeding Fingers) is at the top of the new post-punk from the States that combines tribal Batcave old-school, synthetic minimalism and'80s new wave pop... this band combines the DNA of Blood & Roses, Einsturzende Neubatuen and The Killers ..."
- Erba della Strega (Italy)
"... What counts is the ability to stir the senses and Feeding Fingers does that in a somber way... in the simplicity lies much of the beauty..."
- Gothtronic (Netherlands)
"... this album firmly places Feeding Fingers in a multi-talented niche of their own... evokes, like none other, the authentic and classic sounds that smacks of post-punk greatness..."
- Fiend Magazine (Australia)
"...Baby Teeth is an honorable effort to appease those of us who like to have a great time feeling miserable..."
-Evil Sponge (USA)
"... Once you’ve inserted ‘Baby Teeth’ in your player you can say goodbye to the normal world for a little while. The feeling I had when listening through this record was that the music of FEEDING FINGERS in some way is disconnected from reality. It evokes own, at times surreal environments... It really is music that puts a spell on you."
- Sebastian Huhn - Reflections of Darkness (Germany)
"... darkly romantic... full of throbbing, single-note bass, alternately soaring and screeching guitar lines, icy-cold drum lines and vocals which are a mourning wail... I like this a whole hell of a lot."
-Gordon Lamb (Flagpole Magazine - USA)
"... (Feeding Fingers) sound like the contemporary masters of their genre... "
- Dark Entries (Germany)
"Here lies a noble attempt at traditional gothic beauty... Curfman’s mournful cries echo in the distance, veiled in a gauze of reverb... standout track “Fireflies Make Us Sick” might as well have been written by Depeche Mode themselves... unusual versatility... Curfman proves he can wallow with the best of them or move you to the dance floor."
-Michelle Gilzenrat (Performer Magazine - USA)
"... distant and shadowy, yet not necessarily pop-averse... makes for perfect listening during post-midnight hours...
- Stomp & Stammer Music Magazine (USA)
"... finally a band that has achieved the unachievable: bringing us back to the sound of the early 80's... I literally had goosebumps when I heard his voice... Justin Curfman gives everything he's got and it's so beautiful I almost have to cry..."
- Linda Schenkel & Michiel Klompen (MusicMeter - Netherlands)
"... Wound In Wall is a very addictive album..."
- Bat-Cave (Poland)
"...gives us that dim, melancholy feeling our inner '80s teenagers desire." -
- Babble & Beat Magazine (USA)
"If you fancy turning The Cure's "Seventeen Seconds", "Pornography" and "Faith" into a quartet, look no further than Feeding Fingers' "Wound In Wall".
- EvilSponge (USA)
"... resonates with a tragic and ethereal beauty, painting complex pictures of desolation..."
- Don't Panic (Singapore)
"... the suffering and charismatic voice of Justin
Curfman, who has a unique way of phrasing songs, gives the band its
emotional, characteristic and individual touch..."
- PromoFabrik (Germany)
"... a decadent marriage of pessimism united with depressed and loveable melancholy... with a romantic sense of emotional abandonment and of beauty..."
- Darkroom Magazine (Italy)

"Feeding Fingers" is the musical project fronted by award-winning animator/multi-media artist, Justin Curfman. They are a three piece post-punk/goth(ish)/new-wave/dark-wave group whose work is reminiscent of early Cure, Depeche Mode, Echo and the Bunnymen, Cocteau Twins, etc. with their often minimalist and hypnotic percussive elements... droning yet fluid and dynamic bass structures... heavily sustained guitar work... bizarre dream-inspired lyrics... ("...today I found an animal's mouth in a bag of broken hands...") They have a definite appeal to those who crave an element of dark surrealism in their music. "

Hey That sounds very good man. We played WGT last year and appaprantly bands aren't allowed to play there 2 yrs. in a row so we are on the bill list for 2010. So I really hope they give you guys the thumbs up so we can be there together and promote each other. I think Black Rain will also be there selling our and their merchandise. As far as the other shows, let me know where and what venues you guys are looking for in Germany and Netherlands. See if we can help setting up those shows. How do you guys or who distributes your promo cd's? You might have told me already but all my e-mails are mixed up at the moment. If you guys need a free place to stay, just let me know.
