"Excellent" - NME, London "...what more could a rock critic ask for?" - Jim Santo "brilliantly reserved on some songs, powerful and full bodied on others, always original..." - The Noise, Boston "...an irresistible voice that aches through the tender melodies...Von Kries combines orchestral movements with an electric guitar slide riff without batting an eye. Truly an original, fresh CD" - Northeastern Performer Featured on MTV Animator Pat Smith's new film "DRINK" I recorded these records 'by hand', they are labors of love, labors of hate... I think you'll like them. It's the real thing. - Karl PS What does it sound like? U2 on a less 'beautiful day', getting beaten up the Afghan Whigs while Radiohead sulks around in the shadows.
