"Taking their name from Thomas Pynchon is not the only reason Thurn & Taxis stand apart from the run of the mill bands... The music has a spacious quality.. they crescendo from meditative moments into passages of urgency. It's done discreetly - underneath the rush.. " - the Charlotte Observer August 23rd 1991

"Guitar driven commitment to loud, stroboscopic, diamond dog arrangements, original as it comes, with bachelor kisses of Pop Melody to boot." - Creative Loafing November 9th 1991

"an eclectic blend of bluesy folky psychedelia with 60s overtones and crunching and anthemic guitar rock as modern as It gets." - Creative Loafing April 27th 1991
