“Very good music indeed… kinda made me horny.” –- Sylvan Borg, Musician

“Your songs are so beautiful like a blue-black moonlit sea.” -- Aaron Cahill, Musician

-- "Diving Bell Shallows has hooks to hang your ears on. The first full-length recording from local band The Milling Gowns reels you in - between the introspective lyrics and the lush arrangements there's food for anyone at this buffet. Images abound, from the biblical Lazarus to a sequence that sounds like the ubiquitous meditation tape. Standout tracks for this reviewer include "Dust for Kissers", "Violet Wrist", "Cape the Pearls", and "Macaw". Play this when you're looking for the next band to hit it big from Boston."

--- Joann Keesey, WMFO Medford MA

.....................................................................
"Sad Songs Say So Much"

-- "God, we love deep male voices sad music. Tindersticks, Willard Grant Conspiracy, Leonard Cohen, the Magnetic Fields, Nick Cave. Playing in this league is M who sings and writes for the band the Milling Gowns. There's no guitarist in the quartet; pianist Sharon Crumrine is the main instrumentalist. The songs on their debut EP are mostly slow, stately and sad. Gorgeous too. It's not the kind of music people tend to go out to see for a classic "good time." But the rewards are there and sometimes deeper."

--- Jim Sullivan, JIMSULLIVANINK.com
