A swathe of black, wrapped in shadow. Can it be? The hair of the left hand itself, borne on the lips and skewed minds of four individuals singular in purpose. Behold! The Sinister Moustache.
"Their style of confrontational, technical, mostly instrumental art-metal is just about the opposite of commercial." -Connect Magazine
"Each song is like a piece of avant-garde classical music they've translated into their own language...there is rarely repetition, rarely a time signature or a tempo that doesn't get flipped at some point, and rarely does Sinister Moustache give their listeners longer than a moment to relax into it. " -Murmur Magazine
"Sinister Moustache sound like Duane Eddy meets Booker T and The MGs meets Pink Floyd meets Dr. Feelgood meets The Specials."
-Mark Ritchie of Hiroshima Yeah! Zine.
