The Boston music scene has spun out some terrific records this year, not least of which is amusia's "Forever Ends." It revels in dreamy, hypnotic music sung by Nashville emigre Ruth Peterson, who sounds like a soul sister to Sarah McLachlan. The band's album showcases acoustic driven rock-pop with Peterson elegantly singing...backed intoxicatingly by Todd Russell and David Sella on guitars, Matthew Russell on drums and Michael Calienes on bass.' - Steve Morse, Boston Globe
Amusia accomplishes with complete and natural ease what many groups aspire to yet do not always quite reach - an overall sound that is developed and tight and magically alluring at the same time - Debbie Catalano, Soundcheck Magazine
Emotion pours from the speakers on every song. The band shows a very high level of songcraft that is rare, amusia has the goods - bandradio.com
"amusia has proven themselves to be one of Boston's boldest, original rock acts on their latest album 'way back down'. Think U2 with a female front person, that's what amusia deals up" - Metronome Magazine
