"The Kuru Smile are clearly a band who take themselves very seriously indeed, and with a list of influences that includes Radiohead, Tool and A Perfect Circle, that's hardly surprising. Their songs labour under portentous lyrics ('I can feel the presence of a Lazarus within!!'), but that's unlikely to hold them back in a genre where portentous lyrics abound. The music is what matters, and here, their seriousness is justified"

"Colchester’s The Kuru Smile’s unique blend of proggy-alt-rock proves mesmerizing on stage and is no less great on CD; building beats and heavy riffs come together to make music that you can’t help but move to" "

"Think about it, before the internet all people had to listen to was stuff that their folks had on vinyl and songs they had heard on the radio, but thank the super nerd that invented it otherwise we wouldnt have found angry rockers The Kuru Smile to be our latest WELT band" "
Welt Magazine
"The Kuru Smile's recipe to succcess seems to be plenty of smoking, plenty of psychedelic prog-jazz-metal-core jamming, some shiny equipment, the odd explosion and the ability to rehearse like mad feral bastards. Well, it works! Loving their music is as involuntary as a real Kuru Smile. Fantastic Stuff - Fact!" "

"Picking up their instruments The Kuru Smile exploded into action with “A Deeper Depth†and straight into the ears and minds of the gathered crowd, reverberating from wall to wall in the compact venue of the V Bar. At first there was a distinct feeling that the audience hadn’t quite expected this full on barrage of noise. Indeed, I recall my very own first experience of The Kuru Smile, the blood raw vocals, the crazy mentalist dancing of the bassist and the apocalyptic drumming – a whole lot to take in at once"
