"When the debut single from Purity Ring – the new project from a member of New York electro-poppers Gobble Gobble – glides into view, all pinging beats and ghostly vocal samples, you immediately assume the next couple of minutes will consist of repeated pitched-down samples (a sound currently favoured by "blog bands"). So it's thrilling when Megan James's catchy vocal arrives after 30 seconds and Ungirthed instantly takes shape. It even has a dash of Auto-Tune at one point – a sly nod to the pop mainstream from a track that's catchy enough to nestle there itself." - The Guardian

"When you really dig independent music, whether as a fan or a blogger, there’s almost no better feeling than stumbling upon a promising young band that no one’s ever heard of… especially when that band is as talented and exciting as New Animal. Just two dudes from Atlanta, Kris Hermstad and Derek Burdette have labored over 15 tracks and 75 minutes of music in styles ranging from bedroom pop to exp. psych pop to anthemic kraut rock. The more the merrier — they don’t fit some simple category, no “RIYL” recommendations abound. Seemingly from the heart, or from the mind, or from the gut, but at least from somewhere within. They don’t cop someone else’s sound and fuzz the hell out of it to mask their theft. They aren’t hopping on the latest genre bandwagon. Listen for yourselves!" - I Guess I'm Floating

"Featureless Ghost has a vivid presence yet not much is known about the enigmatic duo from Terminal City.
What we do know: Featureless Ghost commands charismatic vocals, drum machines, and analog synths to create songs that lie somewhere between early ebm, synth pop, goth, techno and house music.
Their songs are immediate enough to make you dance but wild enough to freak you out.
Since January 2011, Featureless Ghost has released three singles, one compilation, one full length, five music videos, and have an EP coming out this fall. The effect is blinding." - Doobious
