Here's what the critics have said about The Distortions :



*Another work of darkly brilliant dreampop from The Distortions. Somewhere between Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, My Bloody Valentine and Snow Patrol, The Distortions have found a sound that echoes with dark majesty and narcotic intensity- Mike Bond, UK Music Search



*The Distortions have truly stepped up with what can easily be considered one of the standout records of the year so far, and it stands to set them among some of their greatest peers like Doves & Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. a remarkably subtle and nuanced album .

-Andru Aesthetik, Post-Punk.com



*Machines At Night" is not an album of bombast and fire, but of introspection and magic- Paul Leeds, CultureBunker.com



*The Distortions are faultless purveyors of optimistic dream-rock. Richard Stokoe, LosingToday.com



*."Galaxies Rearranging" conjures up images of The Byrds raised on The Jesus & Mary Chain. UK Music Search



*The Distortions rock in a My Bloody Valentine-goes-POP kind of fashion.

-Michael Diver, Drowned In Sound London, UK



*Listening to this disc, I'm reminded of other LA bands that tried to convince the suntanned loafers that another world exists; bands like Gwen Mars and Plexi can be clearly heard in The Distortions' music. These 9 songs will hopefully succeed where these two failed. Highly recommended; 8/11

*.the Distortions are the real thing; talented and musically advanced. -Independentsonly.com



*.Masterfully done. -Chaz Martenstein LeftoftheDial.com



*Dark, distortion-laden pop mixed with trace elements of goth and 1980s

alt-rock (you can practically see the sunglasses and leather jackets).

It's enough to make your inner angst-ridden high school student mope for

joy.

"HiFi Pick"

-Jason Morehead Opuszine.com Lincoln, NE



*Existing in a world where The Jesus And Mary Chain and Joy Division replace The Beatles And Stones as the pinnacle of pop genius, The Distortions are a band dealing in the same fuzzy distortion and skewed melodies that made those bands so great. Cooler than The Strokes and with better songs than Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, EXPLODING TEENAGE BODY PART represents a debut album to cherish and love.

-Mike Bond UKmusicsearch London



*An excellent album of post punk/indie rock material. If they were over

in the UK I have no doubt that they'd be receiving a lot of interest

from A&R and labels.

"9 of 10 stars"

-Scott Brown Heathen Angel London, UK



*Let some promo guys do their jobs and put them on the cover of one of

those fancy UK poprock magazines, and this band is ready to conquer the

alternative music scene.

-Thomas Byttebier Semtexinc.com Belgium



*.The Distortions are surely the next candidates for post-punk rock royalty.
