easter eggs:
+ Morose, piano driven rock, Ambulance for Angeles has more in common with Elliot than Something Corporate.
+ The Viking and Drugs and Drama are strong enough songs to get this band signed to the biggest labels in the known world.
- Clocking in at just five songs, Im Atlantic is a little short and leaves the listener salivating for more.

"Ambulance for Angeles- people who take the word emotion to a level we couldn't possibly imagine"
-The Inlander
"Ambulance for Angeles write songs that sound just like those emotional moments when you're driving away from a girl's house and you know you're going to break up with her, but you don't know how, or when, you just know that it's going to happen ... It's soft vocals that tremble a little, held up with sparse bass lines and electric guitar picking, with an undercurrent of ebbing drums that keep it moving, keep it rising. It's easy to tell that this is about her, about the one that's getting left, and it hurts to hear, but sometimes songs like these can get you home"
- The Portland Mercury
"While their piano originally posed a problem for the Local Lounge's acoustic set, we found a way to make it work, and thank goodness for that. Their sound is primarily piano based with an eerie intensity and sweet intention, definitely worth checking out! Oh, and Ambulance for Angeles holds the prestigious honor of generating the most phone calls after their show aired. We got calls for WEEKS about these guys!
- Stella Mar (DJ at 103.1 KCDA)
"one of the most powerful performances of my life... a band that has changed music for me a little bit"
- MSNBC.com (in response to live show in seattle)

With their very own brand of melodious rock, Ambulance For Angeles has bought a ticket for success. Through each track on "I'm Atlantic", you get a sense of the next beat being the one where all dams break and a flood of chaos will spread like wildfire but AFA keeps their cool and floats along into another heartfelt chord stringing along heavy piano and strong emotion. Contained within are beautifully written lyrics complimented by the orchestration of each song and execution by a band with its head in hand. We're recommending you take this disc and call us in the morning.
