about

‘. . the second EP from Melbourne’s Souls On Board confirms that their melange of atmospheric soundscapes, plangent stadium rock and jazzy, experimental pop lacks for neither vision nor a sense of reality. Blood Face is an adult work, in that its passion is matched by technique . . they feel on the verge of discovering something essential within their music. They’re already closer than too many of their contemporaries will ever get.’ Craig Mathieson, Mess + Noise

‘Blood Face is an ambitious release delivered with confidence and gusto . . A reassuring rock gem.’ Rave, Brisbane

‘. . pearl of a six-tracker. Opening track ‘Where The Dance Is’ sizzles with its alt-rock bedrock of psychedelic musings. Evidence of Aaron Cupples (The Drones/Dan Kelly) production skills are found on the slow and meandering indie rock-pop magic of ‘Fingers’. Organ is introduced into the mix on ‘Souls On Board’, a mutant of a song that evokes Pink Floyd and early Rolling Stones. Keep your eyes peeled for these guys.’ Scene, Brisbane

‘Melbourne has plenty of buzz bands but Souls on Board actually know chords, crafting songs rather than dumping energetic disposable pap. I'd compare them with Yo La Tengo if that wasn't a ridiculous and onerous comparison for a young band. But good things will come from these minds.’ Across the Rooftops (Melbourne music blog)
