Review extracts:
The Sleeping Shamen In the press release they liken themselves to Pentangle, Sleep, and Electric Wizard. After hearing the album I am convinced the cited influences reflect the band's tastes rather than directing listeners to bands with applicable commonalities, instead I would point those people looking for similarities in the direction of kraut-rock monsters, Can, Amon Duul II, or closer to home Comus, Tea and Symphony, and Mark Bolan's Tyrannosaurus Rex, believing these evoke less typical and yet more exciting and accurate comparisons... Bloody superb stuff!!
Chybucca Sounds
Unique is a word that is often overused in the world of music journalism, as a lazy, throwaway description; however, Crumbling Ghost’s gem of a debut is just that. Relying as much on the folk baroque overtures of Pentangle as the feedback blasts of the Melvins... It could be a while before this uniqueness is emulated... Recommended
