REVIEWS:
"Simply immense stuff - for sensitive souls they may appear and seem, Eaten by Tigers craft out atmospherically charged lonesome melancholic structures of such titanic, tumultuous and turbulent beauty that you are simply left huddled in the corner of your listening space - floored, speechless and daring to beg for more."
LosingToday
"More from the refined post-rock quintet, more of those slowly building instrumental passages occasionally punctuated by a quiet vocal line or a gentle glitch. Uplifting goodness once more... Another beautifully serene set of well mannered recordings" – DEMO OF THE WEEK
Organ Magazine
"[An] unnerving mix of ethereal urgency whilst pushing forwards in a more sinister direction... A flawlessly-produced record - intense and affecting.â€
Sandman Magazine
"[Solstice] superbly combines Edmund Burke's aesthetic notions of the beautiful and the sublime to create a haunting work that is both genuinely lovely and yet thoroughly awe-inspiring ...intelligent and spellbinding" 9/10
The Mag
"An exquisite array of sounds specifically suited to sooth your worried palette... Eaten by Tigers are obviously improving all the time." 7/10
The Silent Ballet
"The evolution of Eaten By Tigers is obvious. The band has in fact managed to mature in a surprising way in a few months, retracing the path of groups like Mono and Explosions In The Sky." 71/100
Rockline.it
"Post-rock with a brilliant balance, fine pace and arrangements that can speak for themselves... the point of culmination is set up like a time-bomb. ...a glorious piece. 7.5/10

REVIEWS:
"Eaten By Tigers do the delicately dramatic instrumental post-rock thing rather well, beautifully played, warmly paced, serenely explosive."
Organ Magazine
"This is an impressive, competent and grandiose debut that makes a good start at putting the rock back in post-rock. Burning bright."
Sandman Magazine
"An enjoyable mix of atmosphere and volcanic guitars... the brooding intro of "Memoirs... " with its added strings is excellent ...this is a post-rock must for further investigation."
Leeds Music Scene
"Verging more on the rock side of post-rock, with the odd bit of electronic sampling and metal riffage thrown in for good measure, ...proving that good instrumental songs don’t have to be longer than episodes of Family Guy." 7/10
The Silent Ballet
"A huge slab of melodic instrumental metal... Tremolo guitars float from ear to ear and the bass wanders around the fretboard on a gentle journey" 7/10
The Mag
"Here’s your dosage of dangerous instrumental progscapes. These are technically blinding and theres some shining sounds and textures"
