Some things written about our EP (above) that came out a while ago


music for robots - "I fell in love with it on the way to work this morning and haven't stopped listening yet."

are you familiar? - (scroll down to Nov. 11th) - "...sounds a bit like Grandaddy meets Queen -- what the hell?"

said the gramophone - "Bodies of Water are new children, nobody is just like their brothers and sisters."

gorilla vs bear - "These songs run the gamut stylistically from '60's California sunshine-pop to indie-folk to psych-rock."

the trouble with us - (scroll down to Nov. 18th) - "...a family united by some mysterious wonderment assembled for a brief time to in the parlance of our times "rock out" and then disappear once again."

the bubble death - (scroll down to Dec. 14th) - "...all sorts of cheerful melody lines and a darkened happiness. Oh, and confusion and indecisiveness...or maybe..."

2 1/2 pounds of bacon - "...child-like enthusiasm, rough group vocals, girl singers, fun!"

grean pea-ness - "...the marriage of Arcade Fire musical sturm und drang with riot grrrl shrieking."

my old kentucky home - "I love group harmonizing, call and response, and melodic invention and you get a lot of that in Bodies of Water's work, so obviously I like it."

music for kids who can't read good - "...takes me back, this time to the ole church yard of yore."

blue mag - "Bodies of Water definitely demonstrate an ability to cause a bit of a ruckus with Technicolor gyrations and joyful, melodic shouts."

ALSO gorilla vs bear put 'here comes my hand' on their list of the best songs of 2005.



Thanks to all these people for taking the time to listen to the songs and write something about them. We appreciate it.
