PRESS QUOTES:
“Those happy to dwell in a place of restless rhythm and energy will be rewarded.” The Wire
"...a tantalising swirl of snare, stick clicks and wordless vocalisations that crescendos into a cacophony of hi-hat and cymbal, like the moment a spell transforms into action.” The Quietus
“Structured like a classic symphony but based on a double-drum setup and featuring vocals that are sometimes wordless but always expression and captivating.” Blitzed magazine
“They don’t sound like anyone else. Well, perhaps a little like the more outré work of femme-centric post-punk bands such as The Raincoats, The Slits, The Au Pairs, and ESG. It also has a weird power, almost like ritualistic music.” – The Arts Desk
"Essentially Rattle is all rhythm and chant and yet it is totally unlike that shaking hoodoo mania thing, completely different to all the spooky drones and incense types.” - Echoes & Dust
“It’s an astonishing demonstration of creating art from the most fundamental building blocks – a beat and a human voice.” Joyzine
“A spellbinding insight into rhythm and metre.” Get In Her Ears
"Encircle’s songs are alive with elemental power. It’s a challenging but rewardingly hypnotic listen.” Loud Women
