Full article:

This Glasgow-based trio has been compared to bands as diverse as Jefferson Airplane, White Stripes and The Breeders but, while unashamedly drawing inspiration from folk, prog and psychedelia, their musical identity is strong enough not to need comparisons. Vocalist Jill O'Sullivan has a pure, clear voice that slices sharply through the sinister sonic landscapes they create using an array of imaginatively adapted instruments and effects pedals. When they rock out on cuts like Odessa they clearly still have power in reserve and although at times they sound ominous, at other moments they can be jazzily chilled. This band is clearly on its way somewhere fast.
