:: extra life ::
“ … scarily focused and ruthlessly complex in a post-prog sort of way, but it also flirts with a dark, sumptuous art-pop vibe. The end product is relentless, enveloping and frequently gorgeous.” - Time Out New York

“Precision bone-crushing … I realize this may sound like hyperbole, but have you seen this band? Go, then decide if I’m exaggerating.” - Impose Magazine

:: skeletons ::
“Most pop music is frustratingly pedantic. It should be possible to write a catchy song that doesn’t use the same samples or effects used in every other artist’s songs. It should be possible to integrate technology with traditional rock instrumentation to create nuanced compositions that reward repeat listens but can still be whistled. And it should be possible to include every sound, rhythm and melody, regardless of genre, to enhance a song without being pigeonholed as noise, electronica or world music. If you share any of these concerns, then $keleton$ is the band for you.” - Cleveland Free Press
