| Wintersleep > Albums & Lyrics |
Wintersleep's first show was to a small audience in an underground cafe on April 29th, 2002 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. One year later, on April 1st, their debut self-titled album was launched in Atlantic Canada - in June 2003 it was released nationally in Canada thru Outside Music (outside-music.com). Work has begun on a second Wintersleep album slated for release in 2004.
PRESS QUOTES:
"Ten out of ten! This self-titled album is hands down amazing."
Decoy Magazine, Virginia, USA
"4/5 - A vigorously cathartic musical experience, full of wisdom and understanding. The band craft song after song of downtrodden indie rock that carries enough weight on it's shoulders to induce shin splints and stress fractures. Entirely honest, deeply moving and above all brimming with intelligence, this quartet are far from your average band. It is the lack of commercial sensibility and keen focus on honest musical expression that really makes this outing as enjoyable as it is in the end, if ever there were a perfect soundtrack to a bout of quiet retrospection on a rainy day, "Wintersleep" would probably be it. �
The PRP, USA/England/Brazil
"Wintersleep appeal to our most ingenuous, innocent spirit. To intimacy, breathing, death. This isn't rock music, but Eleusian mystics, Theorogy.“
Leninez, St. Petersburg, Russia
“passionate... drowning in haunting melodies and captivating ambiance.�
Reverb Magazine
"withheld sounds of threatening storms - really very exciting to have this kind of sound coming from Atlantic Canada!"
Sieved, St. John's
"Halifax's best new band continues to expand its fan base and repertoire with each show, and even though they played two hours before main attraction Ron Sexsmith, the dance floor was packed to capacity with appreciative fans."

"The band blows the pants off crowds time and time again. ... one of the most unique sounds to ever come out of the Maritimes... this band will take the country by storm."
Chart Magazine
"A Halifax super group if there ever was one."
