Wales Online Music review: Chapel Club/Man Without Country, Barfly, Cardiff.
The Cardiff outfit’s pulsating electronica glistens and radiates a lovely mellifluous ambience. The effervescent rhythmic hum of their gilded reveries makes for hypnotic listening.
Tunited Live Review: Man Without Country, Clwb Ifor Bach, Cardiff
“The first track, King Complex, started off innocent enough with a cute xylophoney sound giving a nursery rhyme vibe with a complicated, spontaneous and random focus. Then chorus struck and it went dark. Nice and dark. With gloomy glitches n’all. Ryan sang in his metallic, glossy mercury-like voice: “You’re a true parasite, you’re the bane of my life”. Any song that coins such a phrase is worthy of praise. Then the progressive middle eight took off with its epic guitar solo, vocal washes and synth hook lifting and warming this one up a smidge. It was only the first song and the crowd at the back opted to stand on their bar stools to get a better view while the rest bobbed up and down on their tippy toes. So I wasn’t not the only person that thought this is a band to watch then.”
