Sounds Like: "Take the atmospheric 'Losing My Way' for example...some of the most intrinsic vocal harmonising this side of 'Scarborough Fair' ensure it's status as a worthy successor to BRMC's 'In Like The Rose' is secured."
***
"an adept nonchalence that many bands of an older stature spend years trying to achieve. And there you have it. The Senses - definitely ones to watch out for." (Dom Gourlay, Drowned in Sound)
***
Golden Sophoric tones to watch the sunset to (Lamacq - One Music, Radio 1)
***
Senses provided yet more irresistibly tuneful gems. Following the same kitchen sink approach to crafting perfect guitar pop which won Teenage Fanclub critical acclaim" (Simon Harper, BBC Website)
***
Senses lured me into their cradle of charming harmonies. The vocals simmer like a little fire on a giant lake of melody on my favourite track, Truly Beautiful Disaster. Self explanatory. And their influences include Stone Roses, which means that I'm sold. Senses have a knack for making sound that breaks apart but doesn't wither - it's disphoric yet comforting, and so fragile every chord feels like it could break apart in depth - like fractals. (The Hype Machine)
***
SENSES- Dense narcotic rocknroll like BRMC or late JAMC..pretty much along the sleaze rockin' lines of anyone abrieviate-able in a leather jacket (Bugbear)
***
Senses let their songs do the talking. They look good but don't overdo the rock 'n' roll demeanour. The swagger is in the music, not the pose, as if they know how good they are and don't feel the need to spit out attitude (Tony Foster, BH One)
***
It's a pleasant suprise to see a Coventry band on the former label of The Young Knives and Elf Power, but where these groups play trippy indiepop and angular art-rock, Senses are indebted to the heroes of classic British indie. Drifting's lavish, chiming melodies might owe a considerable nod to the sound of the 90's Manchester, but you couldn't wish for a more melodic trip down memory lane. (Karl Cremin, The Fly)
