The Hero Cycle “Lakes and Ponds” – Boring Machines Disturb Sleep

Mar 15, 2007 | Reviews, The Hero Cycle Reviews

Excerpt – “There’s a touch of Arcade Fire, a dollop of Broken Social Scene, while some of the tracks are peppered with experimental guitar work, reminiscent of Sonic Youth…….The Hero Cycle, however, have a knack of bringing their own unqiue burst of energy to...

The Hero Cycle “Lakes and Ponds” – Avoid Peril

Mar 5, 2007 | Reviews, The Hero Cycle Reviews

Excerpt – “The liner notes seem to say it all: “Bravely written and delicately recorded by The Hero Cycle.” Bravely written indeed; this gang of seven doesn’t just hint at obvious influences like Built to Spill and Broken Social Scene, but beats what makes those...

The Hero Cycle “Lakes and Ponds” – Seven Days

Mar 1, 2007 | Reviews, The Hero Cycle Reviews

Excerpt – “Opener “Breathing In” sets the tone for the rest of the record, with pinprick guitars and gauzy vocals that share an attractively muted quality. It’s a close cousin to shoegaze, the dreamily melodic genre that captivated indie fans in the ’90s. The...

Feb 4, 2007 | Reviews, The Hero Cycle Reviews

“The most exciting release I’ve heard in a long while is the debut EP by Burlington, Vermont’s The Hero Cycle. I cannot say enough good things about their sound. They feel like an amalgamation of all of my favourite bands: Broken Social Scene, Arcade Fire, Sonic...

The Hero Cycle “Lakes and Ponds” – The Sandwich Club

Feb 1, 2007 | Reviews, The Hero Cycle Reviews

“Bands like The Hero Cycle don’t come around that often. Infact a collective would be the most accurate term used to describe such a band. Seven members, a whole ensemble of instruments and varied style make for an intriguing sound that bounces from the light and...

The Hero Cycle “Lakes and Ponds” – Racketscan

Jan 27, 2007 | Reviews, The Hero Cycle Reviews

“The Hero Cycle are one of those bands you discover…and instantly want to hide…..hoping against all hope that no one will come strolling by and discover your treasure………..The Hero Cycle is that treasure, and there is precious little time remaining for them to be...
