![]() "... France's proXima are
an unusual bunch ...'hello my old friend' is an enjoyable BEATLES-ish
number whereas 'punk is dead' resembles ERASURE with guitars - and what
a guitar ! ... This band are certainly different",
NOISY
Magazine, UK
"... the second
proXima track 'punk is dead' sounds completely different : gone are the
RADIOHEAD and BEATLES references, and in are the GUIDED BY VOICE style
beat. Although impaired by a suicidal title (punk is dead), this is a
really good track",The
MAG-ME, UK
"Wow, this is
not your average rock guitar album. proXima are from France, and their
approach doesn't reflect anything i've come across before, with the
possible exception of DEUS ... and the vocal harmonies are beautifully
executed ... some of this is wonderful ...",
LiveClub,
UK
" ... a great
comparison would be the sound of Irish band ASH, though there's a
different vibe to this band's sound, that sort of infused with the
melodicism of the BEATLES, and the pop skills of NIRVANA ...",hEARd
