GLISSANDO
www.myspace.com/glissando
New album out June 23rd
"This record completely took me over for the whole 70 minutes. I was hanging on every chord waiting for their next move."
Comfort Comes 9/10
"Low meets Mogwai, only with fragments of Regina Spektor at her most restrained. Exceptional."
RockFood 5/5
"the more sedate moments culled from Set Fire to Flames back catalogue are an underlying influence as are both the measured and mercurial montages cast into the public eye by early career Sigur Ros and Godspeed You Black Emperor".
Losing Today
"an album full of grace and beauty and one that is easy to recommend".
Blues Bunny - album of the month 5/5
"It's sad and it's beautiful and it cracks your heart like a rock"

HER NAME IS CALLA
www.myspace.com/hernameiscalla
New record is out NOW!
"This extremely talented band, fundamentally experimental in nature, defies any attempt to describe them using only one set of adjectives.....I guess what I’m saying is this: Her Name Is Calla is a brilliant band with an even more brilliant future ahead of them. This album comes extremely recommended. 8/10"
The Silent Ballet
'The Heritage' opens as it means to go on claustrophobic, disconnected and disconcerting - it's bloody great...As post rock becomes something tired, dull and predictable, Her Name Is Calla have created something that could not only invigorate, but save the genre and give it it's 'Rebirth'. This album doesn't just hint at greatness, it brazenly wears it tattoo'd across its forehead.
Echoesanddust.com
"...this is the most agitated and obsessive I've been about an album all year. It has ruined my work-habits and destroyed my deadlines. And that, I think, is exactly what art should do. 8/10"
Whisperin and Hollerin
"...this is a very accomplished effort by Her Name is Calla - on this evidence their debut album proper will be something very special. 8/10"
