Housespace Nonsense Heard about this band on KEXP yesterday and blew my mind, they are an incredible 3 piece from Brazil, and with an amazing sound, i don't know how to define the style but who cares??? they're awesome!!!!

Knut Gigstad A really cool blend of noise rock meeting something like Siouxsie and the Banshees/Savages, but also something darker in tracks like Life Comes From Death. Tribal, occult, sexy and totally cool!!! Favorite track: TAKE YOUR TIME.

Michael F. Some tasty deathrock/post-punk with all the requisite elements; disembodied, reverb-drenched female vocals, tribal drums, whirling organ, flang-y bass and some dabbling into 45 GRAVE sound... Even trips into shoegaze territory ("Secret")...Some experimental noise & guitar wash rounds out the Ep to surreal effect ("Caverna"). This should be re-tagged for more exposure; this is really great stuff for fans of brooding indie goth and deathrock...Wicked good. Favorite track: LIFE COMES FROM DEATH.
