also, some people have said...
“Their show was a blast, had a pretty sweet balance between mellow songs/female vocals and more rocking songs/male vocals, and they had all kinds of people dancing and grooving along…a bunch of people got up on the stage with the band and stuff too. Yeah, I’ll be going to see them again soon - one Song Corporation show made me a fan.” - EARFARM
“Their set was great, evenly divided between some pretty sweet mellow jams (think late period Sonic Youth)..and some more upbeat numbers. That last one about maps was especially great.” - FLUXBLOG
“Their final number, a hedonistic B-52's piece that saw vocals coming from a large man hanging from a pipe doing a Les Savy Fav impression. A call to stage dancing arms was happily taken up… and it resulted in a triumphant close.” - MERRYSWANKSTER
“The Song Corporation’s music seems to integrate new elements in an already pretty noisy (and exciting) formula - a sprinkle of pop, an interest for complicated guitar plots, and a tad bit of bossanova.” - DELI MAGAZINE
“Pulling influences from the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, this music is layers of noise, groove, delicacy, and lots of cymbals that is unpredictable and pleasantly so.” - PUNKNEWS
"Musical reference points: Sonic Youth, Talking Heads, the Clash, Pixies. You will fall in love with Kristie. You'll be either scared of or in awe of Mike (depending on which songs he gets to do and how far into the crowd the mic cable reaches.) You'll be impressed by Felipe and George's musical abilities. Most importantly if you talk to them for a minute or two you'll quickly realize that they're some of the nicest and most fun people on the planet and you'll want to sit down and have a beer right away." - SUBINEV
about The Raisin Bran EP...
"The three songs draw from many different sources, ranging from the bossa nova inspired 'Soothing Sugar' to the straight up indie pop track 'The Bug Speaks' and topped off with the cleverly crafted spoken vocal track 'Raisin Bran in the Sun'" - CRACKERS UNITED
“I like the guitar that wanders like Miles Davis through the below decks – the quiet one, the one underneath the verses…The best pop song to ever have been inspired by Hannah Arendt’s ‘The Origins of Totalitarianism,’ this is democracy and its collapse - accompanied by a guitar solo…Yes. From the Song Corporation’s new 3-song EP.” - SAID THE GRAMOPHONE
“The opening track, ‘Raisin Bran in the Sun,’ starts off hinging on this bass line that will turn you over and smack you square on the ass. ‘Soothing Sugar’ and ‘The Bug Speaks’ impressively channel recent Sonic Youth and early-80s Clash respectively, but it’s ‘Raisin Bran…’ that stands out as a signature track. Our only beef: we want more.” - STEREOACTIVE NYC
"'Raisin Bran in the Sun' is made to be a rock radio novelty hit, with both clever pop references and a surly attitude." - PUNK PLANET

you guys rock! sorry it has taken me so long to approve your request, i have been on the road touring...anyways, i just wanted to stop by and say thanks for being my friend....hope you enjoy the music....
Hi, thanks for the friend request. At one time my choice of music would have been pretty limited. That is not the case nowadays, broadband radio, eMusic and more recently Myspace have widened my music library. I like listening to new groups, new to me at least, that is and I will certainly be giving your music a listen to. Thanks again for the request.
