* "Crazy Dumbsaint's Mortville is a prime example of forward thinking and innovative music.... The whole album travels in mood from melancholy to joyous, and the ride in between is an absolute treat.... I can't wait to get a chance to see these guys in concert as I'm sure it's an experience to remember..."__LiveMusicPDX__
