FLYER

‘This is music to be absorbed again and again’ The Fly

'Brenda are a startling proposition... a completely arresting experience' The Dreaded Press

‘Brenda are certainly trying to redraw the lines between rock and electronic music.. Few bands realise their goals as well as this’ 4/5 Manchester Music

‘remarkable, and a stark reminder to us all that we haven't seen it all before.’ 4.5/5 Gigwise

'Genuine inventive beauty... Brenda are here as an influence rather than to be influenced.. a very very fine.. rewarding, highly recommendedand rather original two track single' ORGAN MAGAZINE - SINGLE OF THE WEEK

'With the jittery ignition of 65DOS and the bleeding guitars of Fugazi circa ‘Instrument’. With an
Oceansize ear for melody, these guys are a stunning addition to the Post-Rock genre, one’s to watch!'
Subba-cultcha.com - SINGLE OF THE MONTH

‘Songs that are more inventive in 30 seconds than the entire career of 90% of other bands’ Drowned in Sound
‘A breathtakingly huge musical quarry that, the more you excavate, the more you discover, the better it
gets.. 9/10’ No Ripcord

' there's something of deepening substance here... drawing an invisible line somewhere between Tortoise and
Stars of the Lid. A must.' The Sunday Experience
