| About Super Volcano |
Some Press:
EAR FARM (national online) 08/26/07 Super Volcano clearly believes in these songs they've made. Like I said, they had to make this music. And who can argue with them based upon the results? They're scratching so many of my own personal musical itches by blending together their dramatic pop sensibilities with synthesizers and production that's rough around the edges; I'm completely ready to declare them fit for mass consumption.
ZAPPING (national online) 09/07/07 Recommended to me by a friend who thought i needed a bit less pop in my life. I gave it a listen and then, dammit, couldn't get it out of my head as they pack the verses and chorus with enough sing a long goodness to keep fans happy for years to come.
ABSOLUTEPUNK.NET (national online) 11/1/06 For those who can appreciate the finer points, this release will bring out more reactions than the band’s name implies. Basing the concept of the record more on how each song flows, violins, tape loops, accordions, keys, and sporadic clarinet sighs coalesce with the a-typical rock accouterment, creating a familiar but fresh sound.
TRANSFORM ONLINE (national online) 9/29/06 Perfect production. Instruments are played well and mesh well together. The band go where many other bands aren’t going today.
ANTI MUSIC DOT COM (national online) 9/29/06 The expansive knowledge of traditional theories and methodologies add an unsurpassed level of sophistication to their take on indie-rock compositions.
SILENT UPROAR (national online) 9/12/06 Niche-less and eclectic is the way to be, and these guys have nailed it.
