ROCK-A-ROLLA (UK), June 2011
«Huntsville brilliantly probe and re-evaluate their basic sound template and in doing so have made their finest album yet.»

UNCUT (UK), June 2011
«A new genre emerges – Americosmische, anyone? (…) there’s a lushness to Huntsville’s austerity that makes their third album much more than a dry exercise in tonal nuance.»

THE WIRE (UK), June 2011
«The result is genuinely hypnotic, even trance-inducing music. Really magnificent (…)»

The Arts Desk (UK), June 2011

The Milkfactory (UK), June 2011
«With this latest album, Huntsville continue to create extremely sharp and imaginative sound constructions with a very clear individual sense, but their hypnotic rhythms are now closer to linear krautrock grooves than to rock or jazz ones. For Flowers, Cars And Merry Wars is the sumptuous record of a band which appears to evolve with no boundaries to contain them.» Read more here

Music OMH (UK), June 2011

EXCLAIM (CA), June 2011
«This Norwegian trio continue to dissolve the boundaries between improvised jazz, electronic music, drone and even pop songwriting.» Read more here
