PLANET-LOUD.com REVIEW
"Formed back in 2004, these chaos-creating Scots take their influence from bands like Dillinger Escape Plan, Converge and Deftones to form a sound that is as chaotic as it is peaceful. While there is still a long way to go for the band, a bit of fine-tuning from these Scots will help hone their shape-throwing, off-kilter, discordant mayhem into something quite promising. Trust us when we tell you that it won't be long before the words epic and Alrosa are being thrown about in the same sentence."Graham Finneywww.planet-loud.com
EXCERPT FROM A REVIEW OF OUR FIRST EP...
"The EP is coherent in a way that suggests it was grown, rather than written, quite a feat for a self produced work. Compounded by the fact that the disc captures so much of what is outstanding about the band live, this stands as a formidable debut. The band are on tour throughout the UK during the latter part of 2006, so catch them before your mate tells you about this amazing band he just saw, and you experience the shameful hot embarassed feeling that only comes when you know you've missed the front end of something truly spectacular. And you cry."
