What Babes in Boyland wrote about you.......

.Suicide Inside ‘learn to swallow” by Riotmiloo:

I was looking forward to receiving the opus from Ambassador 21’s side project. I knew it would be different because of their track ‘angel’ heard on myspace but what would it sound like? Well ‘Learn to swallow’ will take you to a multi-layered mental journey where thumping rhythms alternate with brittle ambiences where power noise meets some frail atmospheres, where female screams, spoken words or sighs aim to thrill your heart (and don’t get me wrong, it really does). ‘Antimonopoly’ will reveal awkward deep dim emotions; forgotten ones that were buried somewhere far cavernous in your unconscious. The CD is definitely oppressive, dark, broken and it is what makes it unique and striking. Let them invite you to that mysterious yet pleasing journey, as they’ve said themselves, they’ll “teach you how to swallow”, and you’ll learn what mental distress by listening to these dark heavy rhythmic noise emanations…
