In The Darkness
MP3 comments

"Powerful, soaring and psychedelic song from this Vancouver band who has a lot to offer. Sublime and spine tingling" - DreamPop Links (mp3.com)

"This is one of my personal favorites on mp3.com, the drum beat is envigorating and the guitars are just plain groovy, the female vocals are moody and provocative" - Cult Radio (mp3.com)

"Fantastic! This song is just SO good. It's imaginative, ethereal, soaring. The song almost moves in waves, starting with a straight-forward bass-drum-guitar verse that flows into the electric chorus led by powerful vocals and guitars, then quickly ebbs back to the mild verse. It's a very abrupt change without being at all jarring. Easily in the 95th percentile of everything I've heard on this site." - SpamHammer / Chicago, Illinois (garageband.com)

"
DESTINED FOR GOLD!!! In the online radio business we always look for distinctive well recorded and produced material. This is just such a piece. Excellent recording and vocals with a brilliant instrumental backup." - Frank Scott / SynergyRadio (mp3.com.au)

"Strong rock and rhythm foundations give Cindy Tomlinson's vocals the freedom to beautifully roam and blossom; rarely does a band's name give such a multi-level poignancy to the music as theirs. In The Darkness is hypnotically enlightening; world -- this is your wake up call: Orchards & Vines have arrived." - Radio Stonewall (mp3.com)

"This is definitely ready for college radio! A solid track that keeps the alternative revolution alive" - Jonathan Sanders (mp3.com)

"I can't say enough good things about this band. The vocals are dark yet enthralling. The sense of melody is extraordinary." - Radio Coelacanth (mp3.com)

"The instruments fit together, more than that, they belong together. The chorus is what really makes this track work - the foreground and background vocals powered by the distinct bass and guitar bring a melodic cap to a fine song. In my humble opinion music like this encompasses what alternative used to be and should be again." - Kilian Sabre (mp3.com)

"Music to soothe the savage beast, smooth, intensely bright like on Pink Floyd's Piper At The Gates Of Dawn." - Maioan Person (mp3.com)

"This song has a soaring vibe like the Byrds psychedelic era classic Eight Miles High, and if that makes you feel like dancing as it did for many people in the '60s, there is a beat for you to dance with! But it's just as fun to hear when you're just chillin' out." - Eternal Summer of Psychedelic Love (mp3.com)

"I really like the beat of this song and great bass work. Finally, a band where the vocals are up to par with the music. Loved the background vocals." - bquinney / Minneapolis, Minnesota (garageband.com)

"Sultry, soaring and psychedelic. Awesome!" - Best of the Big Sounds 5 (mp3.com)

"Fresh air from Canada. Modern indie with roots in Byrds/Airplane-like rock. Soaring melody builds from minor to major, from darkness to light." - Slim's Picks (mp3.com)

"The best female voice on mp3.com. By far......" - Sleepzone9 (mp3.com)

Across The Waters MP3 comments

"This song—this perfect voice, these twisted guitars—take the listener to a very pleasant place and keeps them there, happily swaying until the song is over." - radio catharsis (mp3.com)

"Orchards & Vines borrows some from 60s rock, and some from the 90s indie scene and weaves this together into their own great sound. the end of 'Across The Waters' explodes into a rich psychedellic feast.. I want more." - cAPSLOCK's mp3.com Reviews (mp3.com)

"VERY Cool I'd call it trippy, but that's selling this track short -- this song reminds me of Lush with more talented vocals and Voyager One with just a little less acid. I love the mood of this tune and every part of it contributes greatly. Excellent!" - Panman / St. Peters, Missouri (garageband.com)

"Upbeat guitar bliss pop rock with a psychedelic edge and smoky female vox that recall the 60's" - Dream-Pop Radio (mp3.com)

"a very dreamy quality to this song, makes me wanna eat acid and lay in the grass staring at the sky... pretty cool song all around." - backtrack / Middle River, Maryland (garageband.com)

"A splendid mix of psychedelic and alternative rock. Cindy Tomlinson's vocal skills are a perfect compliment to the music." - Fishfire Radio (mp3.com)

"Hippy trippy, you got me chasing white rabbits all around the room. Reminds me of Jefferson Airplane. Very psychedelic. A dark room and a hooka and you got it made. The Cheshire Cat is smiling now." - ScreamingSkunk / Lake Stevens, Washington (garageband.com)

"Simply magickal: beautiful vocals, brilliant playing and arrangement, this band has it all!" - The Popular Pagan (mp3.com)

"Got acid? I am in a dream." - SkinnyRockStar / San Francisco, California (garageband.com)
