WHAT PEOPLE HAVE SAID:
"Eaten By Tigers do the delicately dramatic instrumental post-rock thing rather well, beautifully played, warmly paced, serenely explosive."
Organ Magazine
"This is an impressive, competent and grandiose debut that makes a good start at putting the rock back in post-rock. Burning bright."
Sandman Magazine
"An enjoyable mix of atmosphere and volcanic guitars… the brooding intro of "Memoirs… " with its added strings is excellent …this is a post-rock must for further investigation." 6/10
Leeds Music Scene
"Verging more on the rock side of post-rock, with the odd bit of electronic sampling and metal riffage thrown in for good measure, EBT creates a sound that favors consistency …proving that good instrumental songs don’t have to be longer than episodes of Family Guy." 7/10
The Silent Ballet
"A huge slab of melodic instrumental metal… Tremolo guitars float from ear to ear and the bass wanders around the fretboard on a gentle journey" 7/10
The Mag
"Here’s your dosage of dangerous instrumental progscapes. These are technically blinding and theres some shining sounds and textures"
The Grain Division
"The purpose of the Eaten By Tigers is clear: their music seeks to capture the variety of the human experience, from the serenity to the brutality." 65/100
