CD Reviews

Engineering a Future

Thomas | Leeds, UK | 11/30/2004

(4 out of 5 stars)

"London based quartet The Engineers are a very talented band, proof is found no further than their debut effort Folly. Coming in the shape of a six track ep, it is a wonderful and at times mesmerizing array of indie beauty arriving from the same camp as My Bloody Valentine, Air and Doves.

Swirling harmonies and sweeping contrasts provide the basis of the sound, whilst the majestic vocal talent of Simon Phipps creates imaginative scope thats on a different playing field to any other band at the moment.

Engineers are forging their own highly original, deeply intense, utterly original sonic masterpiece. Odds on to be magnificent next year, the talent is certainly there but are the mainstream ready to open their minds to the groundbreaking sound of this band. Lets hope so."

The Engineers are...

"Total bliss. Kinda Pink Floyd-ish without any hard rocking. They're totally mellow, totally unknown and underrated (as far as I know anyway). To me The Engineers are one of the most original bands to listen to. Good music for relaxing, reading, and sleeping."
