PRESS
"some heavy psychedelic overtones, some Do Make Say Think dramatic buzz. Theoretically the phrase “deep groove” means something else but they should adopt it."
-FADER

"Listen as the tribal styled drums, hypnotizing bass line and occasional ripping guitar suck you in to the world of Loyal Divide."
-FILTER Magazine

"The music swings from sinewy to supercharged, distorted rock — effete to forceful over the course of a chorus. For a young band, Loyal Divide has a well-defined, danceable sound"
-Chicago Tribune

"place the mask over your face and know that while the bag doesn’t inflate, good music is flowing."
-I Guess I'm Floating

“the most compellingly textured music I've heard from a new artist in some time.”
-3hive

"reminiscent of Animal Collective's trance-inducing poly-rhythmic backbone."
-RCRD_LBL




"First it whines, then the electric beat and the bumping of the bass join in, then the band starts whispering their first few notes. Suddenly you’re wondering why your drawings don’t come to life and dance/kill to your music."
-MTV iggy
