Sounds Like:
"In the past twelve months, Kowalski grown into something huge, a cocky, four headed monster, armed with the best voice in the country, as full a sound as humanely possible and tunes to batter us into submission....here they are, fully blossomed, with a gaggle of screaming girls in tow and confidence seemingly sky high. The racks of keyboards build a wall of sound that only singer Louis can break through..."
"Balloons, fairy lights and pretty boys, a Kowalski gig make, plus a fistful of songs that are thoughtful and well crafted....It seems Arcade Fire and Death Cab For Cutie have spread their seed wisely"
"This band has a real grasp of songwriting dynamics, the tracks building deftly, the individual constituents conjoining to create a sense of urgency, crafting a heart enmeshing whole.....Are You Noisy Sunshine State? is an impressive statement of intent, the kind of record you want to listen to again and often."- Fra Jones CNI
..
" Their songs are short, catchy, and to
the point, with a certain Bloc Party-ness about them, but with touches of
Arcade Fire and Hope Of The States mixed in for good measure."
