Cinema Cinema: Press

"Certainly more diverse than most of the indie bands coming out of Brooklyn...it's impressive how much noise this two-piece can make."  

Beyond Race Magazine // April 2009

"Pounding two piece...created a musical melting pot of sonic soundscapes, avant-pop, and good old-fashioned rock songs...an atmospheric journey into the art of sound...filled to the brim with floor-trembling drums, sleazy guitars, and gut-wrenching vocals that garner fist-pumping status...overall vibe is dingy and dark, evoking imagery of a New York City back alley in the early 70's"

 "Unafraid to head in directions that wouldn't make sense to most people. They use feedback as an instrument...have a sweeping, unfettered interest in meditative soundscapes...a melange of screeching guitars and grunts (orgasms?)...forces the listener to choose whether the sound is uncomfortable or innovative...and energy throughout that keeps one's head nodding and keeps unpredictability high"

"Brooklyn, New York has housed many musicians..but nothing like Cinema Cinema has really ever been heard. The complete and utter lack of traditional vanity...is proof of this transcending duo's ability to represent their home base on an entirely different front. Fusing every genre of rock n roll, this indie treasure...classic, maybe?...portrays a "little something for everyone" attitude...Cinema Cinema is one of those bands of talented weirdos that appear only every now and again...brick layers of disturbia create a glamorous sense of mental chaos"

"Borders on aural psychedelia...songs that range from alternative rock to an ambient, avant-garde style that defies labels...takes on a punk aspect with a lot of sonic interference on guitar...threatens to fly off the sonic rails at several points but never quite crashes...intriguing and enjoyable listen...brings the underground to your doorstep...in artistic terms, this is American Primitive music...unique sound...avant-garde and psychedelic"

"SST-style psych-rock"

"Experience the madness of passion meeting noise...extreme amount of focus and drive...fierce both recorded and live...sounds epic and spontaneous...raucous and catchy melodies...a sincerely bad-ass band" 

Knocks From The Underground // February 2009

"A unique style...artistically uncompromising...tight, musical structures propel the music with tantalizing effect!...despite their experimentation, the melodies are there, either subliminal or up-front, they tend to move the song along with a flourish...sonic feast...impressive and fun to experience...from brimming, jarring sounds and rhythms, to quirky song fragments where connecting the dotted lines is not even an option...innovative and intriguing, Cinema Cinema effortlessly weaves sonic textures with solid rock n roll that you won't easily get tired of"

"Not typical of bands coming out of Brooklyn..innovative and experimental, an eclectic work producing a unique sound...a beautiful mess...eerie yet gorgeous...with such conviction and heartbreak, it is hard to not become fully entrapped"
