Sounds Like: "atmospheric restraint personified, a lesson in epic magnificence"

rosa ep - "this new band's first self-release, is a huge, shimmering work of vibrating, atmospheric balladry. at 18 minutes, rosa has a whole five to build into a massive chiming refrain before the vocals come in, a thick gruffness to them in place of jonsi sigur ros' more fey delivery. though autumn chorus' sound owes the icelanders a debt, it is an utterly distinct magical entity in it's own right". - source magazine

"lovely brighton based postrock. epicness. think sigur ros meets gregor samsa. widesecreen soundscape for the sad and lonely" - rough trade

"glorious stuff. these chaps are going to be big!
they are riding an icelandic ethereal slipstream to the stars" - rough trade website review

"blimey, that's brilliant!" - tom robinson, bbc 6 music (live session of rosa)
