Fueling music
author: Pepijn Verlaan
This music will fuel you. It's energetic, dark and emotive. Their idea must have been perfect, but the execution is not, it's just good, and it's good enough at that. I can't imagine this music being as pleasing without the unfinished patches showing.

An ambotopis, far-reaching DIY release.
author: Skratch Magazine
This is an ambitious, far-reaching DIy release. The group covers a continum from goth rock to art rock musically, and the vocals (mostly Angela Timon and Brianna Salazar) strech from a what-you-would expect- sneering snarl to gentle pop styles to a technical sould delivery with a lot of flourishes. All of these desparate elements are imprefrectly rnedered and only loosely stiched together, but taking in the vision the group is beginning to render makes this band one to watch.

a hardcore My Bloody Valentine?
author: Shredmusic.com
All the way from Binghamton, NY, this post hardcore band reminded me a little of a hardcore My Bloody Valentine at first, but after hearing a few more tracks I was struck by the intensity and drama of the music, with strong melodic female vocals with a bit of screamo in the background.

Blood is the Ink
author: Girl Punk
A mix of punk, metal, hardcore and classical, their second album is energetic, entertaining and eclectic.
One things's for certain: nobody's gonna be taking a nap during Blood is the Ink. Singer Angela Timon and her bandmates have put their all into 12 tow-curling, heart-twitching tunes, and its not an effort that can go by unnoticed. Unabashedly theatrical, the album works well as a collective performance; of course, this play is a tragedy.
Giving new meaning to the phrase rock opera, "The Aria" showcases Timon's stirring soprano, with lyrics sung in Italian to boot. "Wicked Trick" is an over-the-top paean to someone's dear, departed brother(guitarist-Salazar's) so dramatic it's hard to tell whether it's based in reality or just the product of an active imagination. After a dozen such diverse tracks, the final curtain falls on "Body Count," a regretful morning-after song in the grand tradition of Liz phair's "Fuck and Run" -- only angrier, naturally.
