While A STORM OF LIGHT and SHRINEBUILDER have each played one west coast show to date, the bulk of these shows will be both bands' first time in many of these cities. It is an honor to share this maiden west coast voyage with these guys, all of whom have been in some of the most groundbreaking bands around.

12-30-09 Review

Thanks to Coalesce for having us. We had a great time, amazing lineup.

Thanks Trashman.

"A Storm Of Light are as close to being as un-self consciously post everything as any band I've seen this year. Heavy, devastating, beautiful, ironic, Spiritually sparse and yet expansive. They reminded me of what The Velvet Underground might sound like if they had begun in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in 2007, rather than downtown, Manhattan in the late 60's. Adjectives seem inept. Much more meaningful are these images. They are as equally beautiful on record." - http://trashmansreader.blogspot.com

Forgive Us Our Trespasses Reviews 3

DECIBEL - 8/10 review (November issue) "Transcendentally rich."

MONTREAL MIRROR - 8.5/10 review - "Epic, sorrowful, cataclysmic and panoramic..."

TEETHOFTHEDEVINE.COM - online review- "After spending most of 2009 listening to decent-to-good-bordering-on-pretty-great albums, desperately awaiting something undeniably transcendent to cross my path, my prayers have been answered, loudly, by this ceaselessly creative, ultimately heavy and poignantly, almost overwhelmingly emotional release, an essential release in every sense of the word."

THEOBELISK.NET -- online review- "The overall tone is oppressively heavy and where the shifts between ambient and crushing were predictable and unsatisfying on And We Wept the Black Ocean Within, here they’re blended together for a new brand of musical heft that sets A Storm of Light apart..."
