For a decade I haven't worked out how to classify TToL or place them in a bucket - they always seem to stick out in my mind on their own little pedestal. I can't think of anyone who has the same style of technical musicianship as this incredible 4-piece. No Tether is truly a coming of age that blends pensive soundscapes with frenetic insanity. Chis-R
An EP of mostly pacy, fuzzy alt-pop/rock. The distorted noise is ably supported by dreamy vocal harmonies, which perfectly fit the mood and tempo. Short and sweet – I'm super impressed! Michael Reilly
