*TO ORDER AIRIEL CD'S GO TO THE AIRIEL STORE *. Press: "Refusing to toil in retro new wave, post-punk or yawn inducing folk rehashes is bound to cause a bit of misunderstanding. But, when listeners finally do come around to the towering greatness of The Battle of Sealand, it's advised they make an earplug investment in the process" Magnet Magazine .."unleashing a full-blown sensory assault to rival My Bloody Valentine at its loudest..you'll swear they attended Oxford in the early '90s." Jim DeRogatis/Chicago Sun Times "The Battle of Sealand is a long playing supplement to those (prior) brief Ep's, and as every track on it shows, the group is capable of sustaining listeners' attention for more than a handful of songs." Under the Radar "This is the group's first LP, and at over an hour, it is an ambitious affair awash with dizzing cascades of guitar effects and a 15-minute closing track that approximates the sound of the sun exploding and dissolving into an angelic choirboy nocturne." The Big Takeover "I'm glad to report that Airiel's first full length effort, The Battle of Sealand, was well worth the wait" Losing Today "Airiel's The Battle of Sealand (Highwheel) dishes up churning psych-pop ala Spacemen 3, ride and their new nephews like Darker My Love and Black angels, though this Chicago band lays off the dark side for the most part and swirl out a curvier crunch thats perfect for summer drives off to nowhere in particular. CMJ "Dynamic, genre-defying act from ambitious local label Highwheel Records" Spin Magazine "This Chicago band follows up a series of early EPs with an impressive full-length of aggressive, shoegazerish psych-rock. Walls of blistering guitars aided by dense production give the band an immense sound, but memorable melodies and soaring vocal harmonies ensure their songs are more than just thrilling guitar noise." KEXP "Is Airiel actually from Chicago? You wouldn't know it from their sound, which leans walls of My Bloody Valentine guitars against melodies plucked from the late-80's wave of Manchester pop. Top it off with trippy visuals projected during their performances and you've got a group unafraid to bring theatricality back to the scene. Chicagoist |
