SHEPHERD EXPRESS (MILWAUKEE, WI) CRITICS PICK:
“No one will ever make the mistake of calling the Melismatics predictable- the indie pop-rockers from Minneapolis can launch themselves into a tune that evokes thoughts of a more explosive Cheap Trick one minute, then turn around and dish out Husker Du-inspired post-punk or twanging country in the next… contagiously catchy hooks and melodies.”
CITY PAGES (TWIN CITIES, MN) A-LIST:
“The Melismatics’ new EP ‘Turn It On’ opens with “Waves Of Sound,” a Pixies-tinged pop rocker that should accompany your next surfing outing on Lake Calhoun.”
MKE (MILWAUKEE, WI) SAYS:
(From a list of top 5 must-have CDs) 2. ‘New Infection,’
“The Melismatics ‘Minneapolis has a rep for awesome bands, but The Melismatics’ new disc really stands out in the crowd as a straight-up, great, no- pretense rock record. Never gets fast-forwarded when they come up on shuffle.”
SWISS RECORDS (SWITZERLAND) SAYS:
“The EP of the American Melismatics is a jewel in the midst of mediocrity. ‘Turn It On’ offers the strength and freshness of the Who in combination with the melodies of OK Go, Rooney, Phantom Planet (before they wanted to become the next Strokes), and naturally the Beatles and the Beach Boys. Hopefully this irresistible mixture hits now!! 9 out of 10”
