Sounds Like:
"The fusion of organic and electronic instruments proves that -- in this group's hands -- pop can be just as compelling and absolute as classical music."
-Creative Loafing
". . . when the two diverging musical pulls finally come together on songs like "Tortoise" and "First Place," the result is breathtaking."
-The Wheel
" A mix of stirring piano charges, sweeping vocals, and electro-experimental tricks...It's not a subtle brew, but it knows how to play a drama."
- Download.com
"::OHLtO:: surely have one of the most unique sounds of any group currently calling Atlanta home...or from anywhere for that matter. Electronic percussion blurps and blips like artillery fire across a neo-classical bed of cello, piano, synths and flute, while airy, otherworldly vocals hoverhither and yon, fey and theatrical, bordering on operatic."
- Stomp and Stammer
"To make music this engaging and beautiful is a feat in itself. This is their art, believe in it because it really is that good."
