MARNIE

STERN

HYPESHEET

press update: Jan 31, 2011

“Blistering stuff.” NME “New York guitar hero Stern is a great one-off in latter day rock.” Guard ian F i lm & Music

“…All the songs here are absolutely killer…” 8/10 The 405

“Stern’s complex, rhythmically-challenging third album is awash with her trademark finger-tapping guitar style, driven along by some wonderfully propulsive drumming and continually

inventive song structure.” AU Mag “Her third album doesn’t slack on fretboard virtuosity, layering her insane licks with punked out banshee vocals and hard-hit staccato beats.” TimeOut “New Yorker Marnie Stern is a glorious one off… there’s no end of forward-thinking fun here.” ***** 5 star review Guardian

“An exciting, mindblowing listen, this third album… is something worth falling head over heels for.” 8/10 Loud & Quiet

“Marnie Stern is a shining light.” * * * * * 5 star review, Artrocker

“…fits joyful sun-coming-up vocal refrains between

fantastical guitar widdle and nutty drum fills …permit us to bug out to the controlled chaos.” NME

“’For Ash’ and ‘Transparency Is The New Mystery’ evoke the image of the greatest stadium gig ever…both offer irreducibly simple, and heart-bursting sentiments.” 8 / 10 Drowned In Sound�

“ It all adds up to Stern's most fully realised, most rounded album yet, and a huge step in her evolution as an artist… this album will likely garner her a large amount of new fans, and is certainly already confirmed as one of the best albums of the

year.” **** ½ (4 a n d a h a l f s t a r) r e v i e w , M u s i c O M H

“Awesome, axeshredding, finger tapping guitar workouts fresh from NY.” T3

New Band crusheS – NME, Jan 5
