Sounds Like
'Think Sonic Youth crossed with Matt Skiba's Heavens Project with an extra pinch of paranoia and you're about halfway there...chilling' Rock Sound
7/10 'The Raudive can lay claim to being a fine new addition to the already brimming list of great new British bands...Indie-rock with a certain intellect, The Raudive are very much worth your time'. Whisperin and Hollerin
'... my current indie post-rock of choice. Sebadoh meets Mogwai, the Word brigade will lap this up’.
Zeitgeist
'What makes this band stand out is the generally homogenous state of the indie market that surrounds it, especially in the UK. The Raudive are different and more so because the music they play creates its own space, its own unique ambience while remaining accessible to many. That’s quite an achievement'.
4/5
Shakenstir
‘Imagine Dinosaur Jr and Sonic Youth covering ISIS and Explosions in the Sky songs at the same time whilst Mission of Burma mix it down into a coherent sound leaving - perhaps surprisingly - plenty of room for the music and the listener to breathe’.
Die Shellsuit Die
'It must surely be a matter of time before The Raudive hit it big and have their particular brand of music sweeping the airwaves'.

Congratulations on the new name. I baptise you in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Just waiting for the CD to drop through my letter box now...
I'm well, thanks. I've got my own live debut coming up next weekend. I think I might try and get someone to record it and get it up on the site: It might satisfy the 'massive demand' for new Wake Orchestra music and end my procrastination.
Here’s to love, friendship, Happiness, laughter and peace of mind. I trust that 2009 Will be a wonderful year for you and your Loved ones; a year Full of precious moments and Much happiness!

Four great bands for just £6, all of which is going to the charity Premrose to raise money for The Rosie Maternity Ward at Addenbrooke's Hospital. We Got Tickets takes no profit (just a little for costs) from the sale of these tickets - bloody good on 'em we say. Get there early.
Pleased to make your collected acquaintances! I like your tunes, they put me in mind of Bernard Sumner's various incarnations. It looks like we're sharing a stage on July 1st. Good news. See you then,
