Consequence of Sound "Death Rattle" Review
"Death Rattle glows with airy omnichord melodies layered over serrated guitar solos. The chunky bass of “Heavy Metal Thunder” soaks in the pairing, giving it a heavy, cobwebbed menace similar to Mew."

'Cat Calls' Single and 101X Homegrown Live with Ume, Megafauna, Black Books, Young Tongue: Live Review
"Young Tongue opened the night and are perhaps the band that we were most excited by on the bill. Formerly the Baker Family, Young Tongue is a new incarnation that released their first song “Cat Calls” recently. This name change and release of new songs marks the best material we’ve seen from these musicians. The group will be releasing a future effort with Austin-based label Punctum Records, which has been ahead of everyone recently in signing talented young Austin artists."
