Music:Member Since: 3/23/2004Band Website: myspace.com/thedistants Band Members: CLICK ON INDIE 103.1 LINK BELOW AND REQUEST A DISTANTS SONG The Distants / Apparent Silence Add to My Profile | More Videos Influences: danceable death rock Sounds Like: candy-coated barbed wire ********** "The Los Angeles quartet is able to mix up ethereal moodiness with driving modern rock across the 10-song disc, which also includes a winning cover of the Cult's 'She Sells Sanctuary'." --Robert Kinsler - Orange County Register & Rockwrite.blogspot.com/ December 2006 ********** "The Distants’ sound is marked by the juxtaposition of Kelly’s atmospheric, ‘80’s indie rock guitar sound and King’s powerful vocals." --Joey Odorisio - FMQB SPECIALTY RADIO / November 2006 ********** "...it attacks the senses with a wall of sound that would make Phil Spector proud. Very independent, very polished at the same time, Broken Gold has its moments in the sun. “The Moth Song” features some great harmonies and a driving beat that would make Deborah Harry yearn for her earlier punk roots instead of the disco diva she has become in recent years when not playing “the hits". --ENIGMA MAGAZINE / October 2006 ********** "...Broken Gold sucks you in and doesn’t let go. The opening, jangling guitar riff of “The Further The Earth Gets From The Sun” lulls you melodic until you are met by the wall of sound that explodes in your eardrums without warning. While forceful, the sound isn’t overpowering as King slithers her vocals into the song in a perfect counterpoint to the guitars. From this point on, The Distants own you." --BLOGCRITICS.ORG/MR. B SHOW & REVIEW / October 2006 *********** "Rising tides of guitar avalanched amid sweet female vocals and a torrential downpour of harmony, "Broken Gold" is an indie modern rock adventure best heard in the late hours of the evening." --SMOTHER MAGAZINE / August 2006 ********** "...incredible guitar attack and a great female vocalist plus enough of a pop sensibility to make it appeal to a wider audience...their music buries itself deep under my skin." --COOLNOISE.CO.UK / August 2006 ********** "...my personal favorite tune is Vertigo... (t)his is a powerful song thats as good as anything off Show Your Bones." --BERKELEYPLACE.BLOGSPOT.COM / August 2006 ********** "Their debut, 'Broken Gold' harbors... lofty ambitions, with King's siren vocals riding the waves of Kelly's sprawling guitar." -- KEVIN BRONSON / LOS ANGELES TIMES / July 2006 ********** ..."mix of Cocteau Twins and Velocity Girl, inebriated with a little gothic mopyness supercharged on caffeine." -- ROCKBAND.COM Record Label: none Type of Label: Indie |
