EARLY DAY MINERS - All Harm Ends Here Press - soon Selected reviews of the previous releases: "They're a rock band to be sure, but in no particular hurry. Their sound can be large, but articulated with subtle complexities, dressing the song's underlying folkishness in regal garb." -Signal To Noise "It's a marvel to see this sort of restraint in rock music. It almost seems unnatural or paradoxical at first. But when done properly, as with EDM, the results are very convincing" -Billboard "Bloomington, Indiana's Early Day Miners are building sonic templates that pay tribute to the ambient models of Brian Eno, the feedback zombie drones of the Jesus & Mary Chain, the frosted alienation of Joy Division and the sublime melancholy heart of Trembling Blue Stars." -CMJ "The nearest reference points are Low and the Red House Painters. They are equally adept at drawing out a sketch of sound, starting near blank, filling in lines, shading with shimmers of guitar building up into a louder, thicker sound and weaving patterns". -Pop Culture Press "Some dickhead from Magnet has compared their album to Low, only meeker...and they know there's far more to it than that. Isn't there?" -Careless Talk Cost Lives "EDM come on like Low, meek and striking, but with aspirations toward the epic sprawl of soundtrack music". - Joey Sweeney, Magnet "Some dickhead from Magnet has compared their album to Low, but they know there's far more to it than that, right? - Rachel Sweet, Careless Talk "EDM have subtle echoes of Neil Young, circa Tonight's the Night. Their album adds touches of melodic slowcore along with blues/gospel drone pop to yield the proverbial opiated glow within the listener's synaptic passages". -Fred Mills, Magnet "An important, beautiful record that shouldn't be ignored by anyone with an appreciation for art and its ability to be utterly moving and devastating". -Ben Sigurdson, Stylus "Sometimes the songs hypnotize you until you forget it's music and end up breathing along with the beat". - Marcel Feldmar, Big Takeover "EDM show their ability to felx some sonic muscle yet still retain its somber, delicate beauty. Gorgeous". -BP, Chart "Near perfect songs, veering from a late summer feel to landscape paintings. It's one thing to sing about a place or a season, it's quite another to cause the listener to feel as though he or she is there. EDM do both quite expertly. LUGB is that rare treat that makes me stop dead in my tracks and listen". - DNL, Pop Culture Press
