About Me

“High Status and Continued Success in the Ongoing Battle for Power and Prestige is thus one of the most successful collisions between poetry and music in recent times: A space in which the two art forms bring out the best in each other to a rare degree.”
–Geiger Magazine
“On this record, Sundh is out on the boundaries, where it is ugly and twisted, but also noisy and quiet. He backs up Burgess' insane micro stories, that seem both like a rapper (sharpness) and a Kafkaesque poet (the interconnected, claustrophobic inventiveness). The album is a unique spoken word record with fantastic texts that both challenge and entertain.”
“The songs or to be more precise text music are obscure yet strangely fascinating and easily digestible - rip the hip hop-ish stutter rap 'before the last minute' an Ivor Cutler for the noughties tech savvy generation anyone?”
– The Sunday Experience
