About Me |

What other people have to say about Shinobu! "The group sounds like a pissed off Pearl Jam writing filthy dark indie rock with heavy guitars and gravelly vocals." -smother.net TRUE! "This album is not what I expected. The first track is just some guitar noise leading into the second track, which is abrasive at best." -punknews.org TOO TRUE! "Indie rockish band Shinobu have been around for 2 years now and this is their second full length I think? I don't know, I'm guessing." -readjunk.com PRETTY CLOSE! "Shinobu est arrivé comme ça, par un dimanche matin pluvieux, à venir mettre sa petite touche californienne dans mes haut-parleurs. Âme et esprit indie rock sont au rendez-vous sur Worstward, Ho! , premier opus plus sérieux de ce groupe, possédant déjà deux autres albums derrière la cravate." -punkmeup.com SACREBLEU! In the end, it just doesn’t add up and makes for not only a disappointing listen, but a fairly annoying one at that. -Razorcake A GREAT REVIEW OF OUR NONEXISTENT ALBUM: "WESTWARD, HO!"! There are no pimpin’ rap tracks on this CD. As a matter of fact, sometimes they sound like hippies! -bigwheelmag.com ...FAIR ENOUGH! We're also involved in lots of other bands and crap, you can find out more about them at Phat 'n' Phunky . V For Vendetta had some really good explosions, and WHY doesn't Matt like Charles Dickens?! |
