Susurrus Station

.. it is a most unusual, sometimes unsettling blend of the eerie and the experimental. It is certainly dramatic, with edgy, seductive vocals supplying a dark gothic folk that is in its own strange way, utterly captivating. 11/15/09 Mad Mackarel “It is not going to be an album that is welcoming or attractive to all but sometimes these are the best albums to persevere with.

The ones that require you to give them a chance but ultimately reward you with greater insights and twists than could be imagined on first listen. With that in mind, if you are going to check this out, be prepared to give it time and listen to it over a few days and give it a chance to sink in, it’s worth it.” 11/13 Room Thirteen, 11/10/09 UK These songs blow by like some sort of gothic western, with all sorts of noises whistling by in the background- Aiding & Abetting 10/10/09 J. Breeden and Sara Dyberg of Susurrus Station have found a way of harmoniously combining the experimental vibe of the Mars Volta with the retro-rock sound of the Raconteurs. But wait, up pops urban Greek folk music and moody vocals you’d expect from Nick Cave. Breeden and Dyberg bring to the table a phenomenal display of culture and expansive instrumental talent that makes Susurrus Station and its songs almost mind-boggling. Here are two such tracks from the band’s Add A Day Going West (due November 10 on Aio).- Magnet Magazine 9/29/09 You might as well leave me in a bar with this band... An extravaganza for those of you willing to sample some phantomish delights and beckon in that romantic epiphany one has always been promising oneself. 9/10.-Jonathan Peter Sutcliffe jearseybeat.com 09/27/09 “Breeden and Dyberg mix styles and sounds in unusual and surprising ways to create some of the edgiest and darkness Avant-Folk in the business today.”--Wildy’s World 09/20/09 "...a transcendantly beautiful and strange band called Susurrus Station. Identifiable strata of exotica, cowboy music, avant-folk, Kurt Weill, showtunes, post-jazz again, spy-fi, and very gentle noise can be detected in the sedimentary layers of an undiscovered stylistic planet." --Noah Mickelsen "Susurrus Station's avant-folk is mighty pretentious...on the other hand, the group's busy 
orchestrations set a haunting mood."--Time Out New York "Susurrus Station makes strange minimalist desert noir music."-- Mastan Music "Susurrus Station are a haunting US outfit who mix gothic melodrama, orchestral jazz improv, experimental sound collage and a healthy dose of poetic lyrical license..."
