Tree No Leaves

"Influenced heavily by ambient, early-80’s shoegaze and experimental bands like Mr. Bungle, Sleepy Shakti contains the band’s synth-laden sound, more definitive and mature than their previous albums—even last year’s Blind Tigers." Toledo City Paper -

"Tree No Leaves has long been a vehicle of experimentation ever-evolving. With a sharp command for the ambient, Leaves’ twenty-plus releases are steeped in psychadelia, practiced in the art of looping, and dabble in dub and funk. The band’s 2013 release Blind Tigers exploded in a blues-infused thunder, bellowing vocals flanked by bigger hooks, and Leaves has never sounded fuller." Brite Winter Festival -

"The ambient sound of this ever-evolving band will wash over you in hard hitting waves of emotion and keep the wheels in your head spinning". Sandusky Register -

"With electro-focus, these wizards exert their energy on a certain amount of dub-core and electro-gression. While they’ve always possessed the right characteristic and melody for this genre, the band also provide their music with an accessible edge, listeners unaccustomed or unfamiliar with the dub environment will find it easy to digest typically by allowing the sound delicate flow to sink in without heavy breathing." The Sirens Sound -

The warm hiss and dub echo of guitar, vocals and omni-chord shimmer through the wake of an unrelenting cadential murmur of drums. This is an exploration into the aesthetics of sound.There are no limitations and there are no knowable bounds. There are simply mere considerations in communicating with others and a tacit knowledge that the tape will not stop running, until it runs out.

"Might it be an example of eclecto-rock? What sort of elements are we to find here? - The Strangl
ers-alike baroque synth themes, the lines of psychedelic prog indie, some powerful desire toward massive crescendos, gloomy and hypnotic song mannerism reminiscent of Victoria Legrand`s touch, even doo wop through a capella is represented here. Tree No Leaves has returned indeed." Recent Music Heroes - Recent Music Hereos

"Artists searching for idea prompts in Tree No Leaves' music can find much to muse on in the depths of it's imagery. Feelings of synesthesia - the blending of two or more senses - manifest themselves to the active listener as the sound seems to sculpt out an almost palpable visual evocation." BG News - BG News

"Stylistically, the band seems to be all over the place – there’s bits of ambient, post-rock, progressive and neo-classical genres and they travel from one destination to another without focusing on any particular style/genre. Tree No Leaves are exceptionally diverse in terms of ideas and their execution and that’s not something that you expect from a young band." I Heart Noise - I Heart Noise
