Reviews:
"'Like A Suicide' combines wistful, pastel meandering with early Talking Heads rock drive. It throbs in a phallic way that twatish Stones inflatable cocks never did. This out-krauts all manner of Devo autobahn devotees in it's relentless, compelling, cymbal splashed and guitar slashed, irresistible brain-blitz.
IS IT ANY GOOD? It may sound staggeringly obvious, but The Early Years play with inspiration born of sweat-earnt competence, they swagger with simple and well placed belief in themselves and their, their, you know, their whole thing stinks of excellence, bravery, innovation, pin-point theft from the vaults of the great and everything. They are there to be loved, do so!"UnPeeled© 2008
"A mechanical flit, like a playing card in the rusty spokes of a slowly turning bicycle wheel, and we're off into The Early Years world once again.
Throbbing keyboards and glitchy robotic drum patterns lead us through the circuitry of a song that gives praise at the pristine altar of Krautrock and takes on the name of legendary post punk visionaries Suicide.
As the track grows, the claustrophobia builds, guitars tear across the song like lightning flashes in a bleak mechanized landscape. It steals the breath from your lungs!
It's an exhilarating clash of the human and the electronic, and really, there is no better way for Sonic Cathedral to celebrate their 10th single release!"MusicOHM.com© 2008
"The band have cranked a few levers and boosted themselves into electronica hyperdrive. Electricity-comes-from-other-planets... deliciously disorientating it's kosmiche electro space-drone glitch disco and I reckon it could sound ALMIGHTY live!
AA side 'The Computer Voice' sounds like machines communicating, all flickering static and glowing wires. An intriguing aperitif to the second album."KittenPainting© 2008
"Single of the Week **** In a timely and celebratory fashion, Sonic Cathedral release a 2-sided limited edition 7 inch single and it really does seem to celebrate all things electronic, with splashes of Nittzer Ebb, Cabaret Voltaire, David Byrne & Eno. If this is endemic of the drone genre, then it isn't a bad place to be at all!"Manchester Music© July 2008
"East London krautrockers The Early Years release their first single in 18 months. It sounds like LCD Soundsystem fronted by Scott Walker while someone puts a guitar through a mangle... unsuprisingly Brian Eno is a huge fan!"NME© 9:07:2008
"Chilling melancholy glides along wistfully with the monochromed electronic beat, the bleeding guitars and droning solo stirring things up into a wondrous collision of drama and melancholy…."Subba Culture© July 2008
