[edit] Press

The record received enthusiastic reviews by the Greek music press. Selected reviews for 'If All Ever Ended Here':

  • "'If All Ever Ended Here' embodies rock music with a line of experimental artifices in the production, with Hadjidakis melodies, with bold guitar distortions that evoke surprise and embarrassment and with string additions that sweetens the set. The second big surprise has to do with the lyrics…" OVERDUB fanzine, spring 2005 [Christos Karras]
  • "The album is like a dream, in which you are lost, so peculiar and unfamiliar that you don't want to abandon. Live it!" (***½/*****) AVOPOLIS online magazine, 09 Dec 2003 [Manos Βouras]
