Dances [album release]

"Brooklyn trio Dances are set to release their debut album, titled Keep Talking, on September 4 via Black Bell/Gigawatts Records. The band are adept at overdriven, garagey rave-ups and more breezy psychedelia, with an ear for hooks, too." - Brooklyn Vegan

"Dances hail from two sides of America and China, but now call Brooklyn their home. As they put it, they're 'cracking the egg of Neo-New York, drinking blood from marble flasks', and they channel the sound of Britpop kinds like Blur…" - NME Radar

"Breakneck psych-rock sonics." - Noisey

"Dances create a brand of smart, yet simplistic guitar pop that equally utilizes the jangle of the dBs and the noisy skronk of the Pixies in its construction. However, instead of trying to emulate the direct sonic qualities of those bands, Dances works with a lot of space in their recordings and focuses on instrumental interplay between the trio. They’re also not afraid to take the touchstones of their influences into stranger territories…" - Tiny Mix Tapes

"Brooklyn trio Dances isn’t, surprisingly, a group that strictly makes dance music. Instead, it’s a rock act that puts out music inspired by ‘60s psych and ‘90s alternative, and while you totally could dance to that stuff, it’s probably better to just close your eyes and let the sound overwhelm you as you wobble back and forth." - The A.V. Club
