About Me

MOTHER TERESA THRASHING A HOTEL ROOM ..Press for SOUNDS LIKE SPACE: “Magneto’s swirly guitars and layered textures remind me of the best shoegazer bands, but it’s Lian’s clear voice – like a cherry on top – that makes me really love this band”SOMA FMElise/IndiePopRocks_______________________________________ “Magneto, a promising Dinosaur Jr. meets My Bloody Valentine (don’t try this at home) quartet. Lian Light, sounding like the stepdaughter of J. Mascis, could be Seattle’s next indie icon”_____________________________________________________ ______________ --Seattle Times_______________________________________________________ _______“On Sounds Like Space, Magneto created a dreamy, layered sound that rocks while it enthralls. What I love about “Sounds Like Space” is refined sound of sumtous layered vocal and guitar tracks, the swirls and whirls and wah wahs”________________________ --3 imaginary girls_______________________________________________________ ____“Sounds Like Space, the debut album from the Seattle quartet Magneto is a musical journey through catchy rhythms and guitar riffs, and some great song writing. The whole album really hits my in my hypnotic center –yes even an asshole like me has a hypnotic center. It has roots in indie-rock, but really it is more than that. The singing of lead singer and guitarist Lian Light floats over the top of the songs creating harmonies and melodies that most bands can never achieve. Some of my favorite songs on the album are Isa, Wake Up, November, and Machine. Really, though, the whole album is great. It’s available in record stores across the country on Feb 14. You should go out and get it, because it might be the best valentine you’ve had in a while."_______________________ -Gil Davis Disheveled Feb 06___________________________________________________
