TOURMALINE

"strange distress calls"


“Tourmaline have successfully married an adorable twee sound to dignified lyrics about heartbreak and unrequited love.”
[ full text available at ] SLENDID


“Excellent harmonies and choruses that really keep the pace of this record going.”
[ full text available at ] PUNKNEWS


“Competent, well-produced emo rock that's maturer and fuller-sounding than most emo...Their songwriting and sound are strong enough to place them outside the emo label, but then I'd be tempted to call them poppy grunge”
[ full text available at ] READ


“Their songs are catchy and contagious, but for once, a rock band is getting pop done right...Tourmaline revives the days of when the top 40 could include well structured, thought out music.”
[ full text available at ] KILLTHENOISE


“The junction of indie and emo, where the paths of self-expression and self-absorption diverge.”
[ full text available at ] EXCLAIM!


“Catchy, yet skillful, lyrics and instrumentals will not only catch you right off the bat, but will grow on you the more you listen to them.”
