Founded by Will Love (Guitar/Vox) upon his arrival to California, the power-thrust dirty-strutters of Sabrosa Purr have been cutting their way through LA's music scene with their two self-produced EPs Volaras and Music From The Violet Room, and one full album To the Crickets And The Ghosts produced by Tracy Chrisholm (Stone Temple Pilots, Scott Weiland). If you've never heard of 'em, strap in. Those who have, you're in for a rockin' little treat.

LA WEEKLY
Yes, there are still amateur Angeleno bands building robust reps through self-financed recordings and compelling club shows (and without monkeying themselves out to reality TV). Sabrosa Purr are an odd collision of loner, stoner introversion and crotch-thrusting fuzz-box rawk. They lurch from the ultra-ethereal, flotation-tank vocals and slithery, succulent guitars of "Suckerpunch Kiss" to the open-shirted glam strut of "Fashion Kills" without so much as an explanation or apology. Though probably more convincing at the former than the latter, they seldom sound contrived. Yet for every moment of earnest Pink Floyd-ish psychedelia, each hint of enigmatic early Cure b-sides or sexy T-Rex flexes, Sabrosa Purr are really all about the original Jane's Addiction -- they're eclectic because Jane's were. The heavily delayed yelps of "Killing the Aries" and "Sabrosa Purr, Pt. 1"'s druggy whimper are downright Jane's addicted, but they're lost in enough love to forget and forgive. Few bands traverse heel-stomping, classic-rock crunch and eyes-clenched, headphone bliss like this.-Paul Rodgers- LA Weekly
