Sounds Like: "School of Seven Bells, from Brooklyn, is a drone-loving band formed by the guitarist Benjamin Curtis, formerly of Secret Machines. It gets booming beats from laptops, echoing chords from the guitar and lilting harmony vocals from the sisters Alejandra and Claudia Deheza, for a promising blend of the psychedelic and the futuristic."-New York Times

"School of Seven Bells, founded by ex-Secret Machines guitarist Ben Curtis and featuring twin-sister singers Alejandra and Claudia Deheza, slipped easily between epochs — medieval polyphony, laptop sorcery, the rhythmic turmoil of Public Image Ltd.’s 1981 album, Flowers of Romance — with smart hooks and the Dehezas’ alluring vocals, liberally greased with reverb."-David Fricke
