Boy does this Ohio duo make a lot of noise. Such is the overwhelming nature of the twosome's aggressive-yet-beautiful sound.
~Paste Magazine
Mr. Gnome glides through catchy and crunchy hard rock arrangements, thanks to big sonic blasts of aggressive elegance. The Cleveland duo showcases a knack for squeezing big hooks into hard driving numbers.
~Amplifier Magazine
The duos' aggressive yet melodic style is catchy and very innovative. The group is sure to become one of the topmost new acts in the country.
~Chicago Flame
This Ohio duo is cool in epic proportions. Rock is made edgy, 3D and gloriously alive. Their sound is so full and complete you would think you're listening to a full 6 person ensemble.
~Unsigned the Magazine
Enter the realm of face-melting guitar riffs, haunting vocals and intricate drum cadences.
~The Pitt News
Mr. Gnome is a rare, refreshing duo, the group sounds like it's from a different musical universe.
~The Other Paper
The trip-rock act Mr. Gnome melds the percussive swagger of Portishead with the metallurgy of Black Sabbath. The duo's unique sound transcends anything else being played locally.
~Cleveland Plain Dealer
Think White Stripes turned inside out and upside down, with a dash of psychedelia, and then you can get an idea of this duo's sound.
~Detroit News
Tightly written songs weave around trip-hop atmospheres, indie rock guitars, and glamorous female vocals that while eerie are out-of-this-world delicious. Something that fans of Tool, Massive Attack, and Portishead can all find in common--"and if that's ever been uttered before I'll eat my hat.
~Smother Magazine
An offbeat fusion of stoner metal and trip-hop that could boil blood. Beat barrages explode unannounced as quiet oblivion ends in sudden full-frontal assaults.
~Scene Magazine
A sound as ferocious and unapologetic as it was courageous for a duo to pull off... like Black Sabbath fronted by a breathy Fiona Apple. This duo continues to push the sonic envelope
~Cool Cleveland
Intense, singer-ly vocals are set against distorted guitar and huge drums, and it's hard to believe all that noise comes from just two people.
~Tucson Citizen
Two Midwestern kids who play the kind of rock 'n' roll you thought no one played anymore.
~Tucson Weekly
The sheer intensity of the music - loud and harrowing, alternately dark and beautiful - belies the size of mr. Gnome. Certainly it takes more than two people to reach the volume of pure and simple noise the band creates. Yet somehow Nicole Barille and Sam Meister manage to mount an auditory assault on the senses comparable to the loudest, grungiest alt rock bands. And they sound pretty good doing it, too.
~ Oregon Daily Emerald
The Cleveland duo filters trip-hop rhythms through fuzzed-out speakers resulting in a Sabbath-meets-Tricky mash-up.
~Salt Lake City Weekly
Cleveland rocks, indeed: This Midwestern two-piece manipulates easy rock clichés and uses deliciously off-balance, schizophrenic time changes of their songs to make enviable and glorious noise.
~Las Vegas City Life
There are so many things going on within one Mr. Gnome song, thrilling structural shifts, spontaneous-sounding sonic bursts, high-ceilinged vocals, air-tight, and artistic drum parts. Like Tool, Mr. Gnome creates a new brand of raging Psychedelic Rock for a generation of Metal, Indie and Prog fans.
~Cincinnati City Beat
Remember how they sing "Cleveland Rocks" in the theme song of the Drew Carey show? They must have been talking about Cleveland band Mr. Gnome. Mr. Gnome is what other rock indie bands should be aspiring to - a unique and incredible sound.
~Unsigned Music Magazine
A mix of Death From Above 1979 with the intense vocal wail of Diamanda Galas, while Kurt Cobain sits in on guitar. In short, Mr. Gnome makes a lot of beautiful noise.
~Albuquerque Journal
So on my way home from work I stop at giant eagle to purchase dinner, I check out the magazine rack before checking out, and there it is, this "paste" magazine has my favorite hollywood hottie Scarlet Johanson rocking on the front as well as a Portishead review, and to my suprise it features the amazing Mr Gnome, and then I thought to myself, I knew these two would blow up, congrats on all the progress and well deserved success.
