Sounds Like: "Clever, spunky, mischievous and yet not too irreverant to be cool, messy and downright sexy, these indie/emo rocksters deliver a brew, taste-tested to perfection, with both a spacey, distant vibe as well as gritty, edgy, grinding coarseness that might occasionally flash you back to the 50s. If you want the guitars to penetrate like needles and the vocals to remind you of that bastard who left you, if you want the harmonies to wash over you something like that drink in your hand, the Sutras could be just your band."
