DRIFT EP

Photobucket
----------------------------------------
New 4-song EP available at shows (pay what you will), now in stores.
----------------------------------------

PopMatters
"...shapeless textures project an emotional inarticulacy that nonetheless has the effect of instilling the listener with a transcendent urge."

City Pages
"Economic in form and cinematic in scope..."

Redefine
"...drops like a massive psychedelic storm, surging with the energy of a live performance."

Culture Bully
"With Drift, we hear resoundingly that Gospel Gossip is a group that is increasingly willing to take chances with their sound."

Star Tribune
"...anchored by the short and bursting would-be radio hit "Sippy Cup" plus three longer, stormy jams that show a penchant for wigged-out psychedelia."

DREAMLAND

Photobucket..
----------------------------------------
Limited edition white vinyl with CD included.
----------------------------------------

Minneapolis Fucking Rocks
"...Gospel Gossip’s star is truly ascendant."

Star Tribune's Best Local Albums of the Year (So Far)
"A dramatic, eyes-closed, head- rolled-back frontwoman, [Sarah Nienaber] has matured as a songwriter while her swirly-guitar trio maintained its youthful exuberance..."

City Pages
"...mutating song structures that signal a young band taking greater control of their melodies and making what could have just been a pleasant wash into an enveloping cocoon of sound."

Culture Bully
"From the opening moments of Dreamland’s snarling feedback, you can’t help but be impressed with the powerful sound..."

Pitchfork Media
"certainly flawed"

Redefine Magazine
"This album will keep you on your feet or, at the very least, will keep you smiling."

Space City Rock
"...a total absence of regard for boundaries."

Bitch Magazine
"It's fuzzy, pretty, and uberrhythmic..."

Mustang Daily
"Listening to Gospel Gossip is like finding a 20 in the wash. Actually, scratch that - it's like finding a kilo of Columbian non-dairy creamer in the wash."

The Big Takeover
"Sarah Nienaber's vocals are somewhere between a Mazzy Star delicacy and a Siouxsie Sioux sexuality. Now picture those vocals floating on a mix of goth wave tribal roll and No Wave noise distortion, but tied together in a melodic-pop picnic basket."

City Pages - Best New Band
"Drawing on old-soul pop awareness they must have accrued in their past lives, these wunderkinds have made a high-wattage debut that harkens to the finer, headier days when brainiacs like the Velvet Underground and New Order were called party music."

Reveille Magazine
"Most great albums require multiple spins in order to truly grasp the scope of where they're going. Gospel Gossip’s debut, Sing Into My Mouth is no exception."

City Pages - Gospel Gossip Interstate Transport and Shoegaze, Ltd.
"...an auspicious debut, a record that feels like a harbinger of bigger, hairier, more sprawling albums to come, and thus a record that future fans can hold up as the beginning of something brilliant..."

Star Tribune
"...the quartet has become yet another band of shockingly young newcomers playing refreshingly ageless rock music..."

MFR
"...whether it's the build-up to synth lines in "Revolution In Physics" and "Wind" or the jangly coda of "Shadows Are Bent", one feels as if they, with the band, are engaging in what alcoholic musicians might call a sonic moment of clarity." .. ..
