Section on our NXNE Performance:

"The Books Elusive: Every so often I hear a band that reaffirms my love for music and right now, these guys are it. Their set at NXNE was everything you could want from a young band – raw, original, energetic and absolutely insular. Lead singer/guitarist Lynne Dubuc has a voice that most might compare to Karen O, but that comparison doesn't really do it justice, while drummer Damon de Szegheo is much like The Muppets' Animal in human form. He assaults his drumkit like there's no tomorrow without missing a beat, and at this particular show, if you didn't see the passion in his eyes, you saw it in the broken drum sticks that littered the venue's floor. "
