FILTER (MEXICO) shows love for TEMPERS!!!
“At first glance, it may not happen much around Tempers, but the elements that have been recruited to spice up their synths based compositions, and elements that seem to be taken from the new wave classic, have been doing their first two singles something extremely attractive. This duo could be the most accessible project Pendu Sound catalog so far, and not something Damian Taylor-mind that in the past has worked with Björk, Arcade Fire and The Killers, was the person who decided to be involved in the production of their first single named “Eyes Wide Wider”, which was released on February 14 of this year.”
BROOKLYN VEGAN excited about AZAR SWAN’s upcoming release on PENDU SOUND and their upcoming show with BESTIAL MOUTHS
“Azar Swan isn’t slouching either, readying a new single for Pendu’s Single Series, and scheduling a local show as well, this time with LA goth-electronic band Bestial Mouths. Look for the pair to team up for a show at Glasslands on July 15.”

TEMPERS “Strange Harvest” is featured on REFINERY 29′s “Best New Music Mix for May 2013″
“Dark, but not dire, Tempers own a goth-glam sound that’s equal parts thick atmosphere and catchy melody. “Strange Harvest,” with its pulsing New Wave beat and emotive lyrics may be the band’s best release to date. We don’t know whether to hold a seance or start a dance party.”

THE QUIETUS reviews STARRED’s contribution to SUB POP 1000
“Starred’s Liza Thorn rounds things out with a fragile – and utterly sublime – vocal on the duo’s sombre closing track, ‘Doomed’”
INDIE UNDERGROUND wants you to listen to TEMPERS…
“Tempers from NYC is a two piece – electro coldwave / shoegaze band. The vocal styles at first made me think of Lana Del Rey, but then that subsided with the 2nd verse – Why don’t you have a listen to Tempers, “Strange Harvest” to see what you think!?”

STARRED featured in INTERVIEW MAGAZINE’s “Soundclouds of the Underground”
“‘Maybe I’ll do it on my own,’ Thorn sings on ‘Committee,’ a soft and sweet song exuding a tint of hazed melancholy. An organ drives the melody, but it is Thorn who tends to catch the ear—although she may not be the loudest thing on the track, the singer stuns with her straightforward vocal, which helps the track float along nicely.”
