SPIN, JULY 2008: (about 'Violent Sensation Descends') "...This immaculately organ-wheezing '60s pop nugget is a Zombies-level revelation."
SPIN: (about 'Violent Sensation Descends') "In 1966, this alternately ominous and sparkly nugget would've been the No. 50 British single of the year, after the Creation's "Making Time." It's that good."
TIME-OUT NY: "Most bands will never write a song so flawless as Violens’ “Violent Sensation Descends.” ... Your ears are broken if you don’t play it several times over before you can do anything else...Violens clearly draws from the mid-’80s U.K. indie scene (Aztec Camera, the Pale Fountains, Prefab Sprout) but doesn’t sound derivative of anyone; the group’s evocation of that era’s internationalist style and wit comes wrapped in a cool emotionalism that also characterizes Violens’ onstage vibe. The only issue with their shows is that we can’t get them to play a song more than once."
RCRD LBL.COM : "Violens ...make hallucinatory, '60s inspired pop records akin to Of Montreal imagining kicking it with the Zombies and Joe Meek back in the day. We're releasing their first RCRD LBL single today, the bouncy "Violent Sensation Descends". We've been listening to it all morning and we feel as if a void has been filled."
