Wye Oak with Butterfly Assassins

PRESS for Wye Oak:

"Listening to their debut album If Children is like taking a master class in indie rock (with a large section on Yo La Tengo and the male-female duo dynamic). Unlike school, though, it's actually quite a pleasant experience."

". . . another band so achingly stupid, so brave at heart."

----- Pitchfork

*********************************************

"String arrangements, absolutely magnetic bass, guitar whorls, and vocal trades and harmonies grow vertically like they've been bumped up with an aural fertilizer. And standing on top of it--say, the rolling and building feedback-lacquered peaks of 'Warning' or the gentle, hopeful ascension of 'I Don't Feel Young'--is exhilarating."

----- Baltimore City Paper

*********************************************

"It's a pop song dressed up in layers and layers of feedbacking guitars and slightly distorted, sing-song vocals by Jenn Wasner, and it sounds like the work of at least fifteen musical scientists instead of two."

----- Idolator

"The duo left a nice mark on the packed basement, surely hinting at more great music to come in the year ahead from them."
