"Las Vegas City Life - Weekly Pic Of The Week"


Black Patterns from Saturn on "Las Vegas City Life" weekly

"The duo is the most perfectly primal of all musical acts. It's stripped-down out of necessity, and the minimalist approach make every chord count. Japanese drummer Koba Mitsutoshi met California guitarist Nani Rueben in San Diego and they formed Black Patterns From Saturn two years ago. This melodic up-and-coming band serves up a smattering of vintage Modey Lemon bang-and-crash abstraction, lovingly hand-churned with the haunting noise of Jesus and Mary Chain. Their shoegazing psychedelia can be found on a compilation released by Stolen Records in the U.K., a self-produced EP titled Satire On Satan? and www.myspace.com/blackpatternsfromsaturn. "Poizen" Ivy Hover, ihover@lvcitylife.com" - Las Vegas City Life Review


"*Live Review"

"You all should know by now how much I like this moody stuff. Sometimes fuzzy, dark, a little feedback, then off to a bright moment. This is why I kept telling Davey that I should have interviewed these guys because of my affinity for shoegaze. Nani and Koba "get it" and I can't wait to hear what this duo has in store for us"... -Piratepods.com - Piratepods.com
