“This CLIBBUS album has knocked me off-course during my inter-dimensional travels and I have crashed-landed onto an alternate Earth where the marquee bands are PRIMUS, ALICE DONUT, and VICTIMS FAMILY (on this planet, early WEEN is like NICK DRAKE). It makes a lot of sense that this power trio hails from Rochester, New York. Rochester has a notoriously eccentric punk scene, full of skateboarding weirdos whose parents huffed a lot of Kodak fumes and birthed strange progeny who enjoy flouting genre restrictions and get off on letting their freak flag fly fucking high.” –maximumrocknroll
H8 Mile - “This isn’t great.” –maximumrocknroll
The Hum - Experimental art damaged rawk from a revolving door cast of local hooligans.
Credit Card - The Detroit duo moves between fractured EBM and synth-punk songs and pleasingly ugly sound collage on a mixtape fueled by noise and nihilism… placing fermenting noise, disconcertingly beautiful pieces of musique concrète, pleasingly ugly sound collage, and generic static between EBM and synth-punk songs played so viciously and fractured so dramatically they seem like they’re being screened on a punched-out computer monitor.” –pitchfork
