Sounds Like: "Hell's Bellows, dressed as if they'd blown in from the snowy steppes of Russia (or the slushy wastes of Belltown's Second Avenue), served up a goulash of stretched, spun and syncopated notes, sometimes festooned with vocal harmonies. At one point, they seemed to be the accordion's answer to minimalist pioneer Steve Reich." (Michael Upchurch, Seattle Times 1/10/09)
Type of Label: Major
