All Genres > Rock > Math Rock > BASTINADO: This Is Rugby Dance

"They combine the musical beauty of Guided by Voices, and spice it up with creative vocal goofing, and balls-out guitar jamming. They have a sound that harkens back to the beginnings of indierock, but doesn't sound dated or ripped off. In short, I like 'em a damn lot." (Portland Mercury, 8/19/04)

"...the Portland trio Bastinado chooses not to bludgeon listeners with endless time-signature shifts. Its complicated compositions lure listeners slowly with their low-frequency tones and subtle melodies, winning by decision rather than relying on knockout punches." (Portland Mercury, 2/12/04)

"The band's sound claims many fathers with the overwhelming wall of guitar noise, pleasant melodies buried beneath and angsty vocals all mixed up into a burly, snarly but beautiful-beneath-it-all-mutt." (Willammette Week, 4/25/04)

"If you're looking for a Portland band to love, check this."
(Portland Mercury, 1/23/04)
