Indie Music Says:
"Describing the many supple layers of Dark Blue World's EP The Harratt Sessions seems a task along the lines of documenting a chronology of Michael Jackson's plastic surgeries. The two members, who met in Los Angeles, share a certain love for a bit of darkness in life, and this release emerges as prime evidence. Skye Marsden, vocalist and cello player, gives off that attractive danger vibe a black widow employs to win over her prey. Sensual and brazen, with a honeyed subterranean sound, her ethereal dark angel quality, and ability to truly tear it up rocking out make for a singer most bands could only wish for. Paul Andrews - who has worked with musicians from Nine Inch Nails, and it shows, has remarkable uniquity with blasting electronic punch and falling, reverberating accents. "
