WHAT THE PRESS HAS TO SAY...
4 **** -- Uncut Magazine, 2008
Live, Millers sparse beats shuffle along while Black goes from a whisper to a wail tearing out shards of spiky lead guitar. It's explosive, organic and really different each time…Nothing on Tintype is ever less than intense and rarely cheery.
--Stuart Derdeyn (The Province) DEC 07
Maya Millers drumming isn't just confident, it's downright warlike --Fish Griwkowsky (Edmonton Sun) JAN 08
A guitar-drum howling-blues duo, Becky Black and Maya Miller of the
Pack are clearly meant to play together...The whole beautiful mess (of Tintype) will have
uptown turkeys running in terror back to their Eric Clapton "blues"
CDs. --Adrian Mack (The Georgia Straight) AUG 07
Some say that Black's guitar pick is actually the Devil's toenail. We don't know where The Pack got their dark gifts, we're just trying to stay on their good side. --Claire Kenny (Urban Trendz) MAR 07
you girls were off the hook the other night in whitehorse! f yeah! that's the freshest thing I've seen and heard in a LONG time! and I've heard and seen a lot, haha;) keep on doin what you do, it's working!
X-box has nothing on 8 bit graphics. How many bits does it even have? Probably too many too count and thus too many to enjoy. Find your way back to thee Midwest U.S. soon.
Honored to be accepted as friend. No, I'm not "too" kind. You are indeed to best bluesrock act I've heard in decades. You're on a par with Janis. Keep rocking. I'm a rocker too. Stop by and check me out.
