The Globes (6/26 @ Empyrean)

About Me

"...the band subtly contrasts loud and quiet, making for carefully crafted guitar rock that's beautiful, but with a bang." - The Stranger

"...to limit The Globes into one concrete genre is (...) a waste. The fact of the matter is, however you want to classify their sound, it’s damn good, and very original." - What's Up Magazine

"...They have this tricky interpretation of modern indie that's catchy and interesting at the same time...infectious and wonderful." - thedonproject.com

"The Globes’ debut EP is full of unexpected ideas, none of which seem particularly trendy, but all of which are subtly thrilling in their own way." - Bennington Free Press

" It's clear the Globes are one of Seattle's most promising young bands. After their set, an observant stranger to my right remarked to me that "they were epic!" and I agree." - Three Imaginary Girls
