"LEAD SINGER/GUITARIST NICO CHIOTELLIS' VOICE WRAPS ITSELF AROUND A NOTE LIKE AN EFFORTLESS CURRENT OF NATURAL ELECTRICITY AFTER A SUMMER STORM; WITH JUST ENOUGH VOLTAGE TO SHOCK YOU BUT NOT ENOUGH TO HURT. WITH THE GHOSTS OF RADIOHEAD, MORRISSEY, AND NICK DRAKE LOOMING IN THE SHADOWS, ROOMTONE GIVES A JUST RIGHT FUSION OF STIRRING RESTLESNESS AND PASSIONATE DAMAGE."

"FEELINGS OF ARDENT BUT RESTLESS SERENITY MIXES WITH PROFOUND JEALOUSY OF FRONTMAN NICO CHIOTELLIS' JEFF BUCKLEY LIKE VOICE...IT HAS BEEN A LONG WHILE SINCE AN ALBUM HAS BEEN ABLE TO MESMERIZE ME LIKE THIS ONE.

THE BAND EVOLVED FROM BOSTONS' 'THE CHOICE OF TRAGIC WIVES' WHERE NICO AND DAVE FIRST MET AND STARTED DEVELOPING A SOUND THAT IS NOW ROOMTONE AND BASED OUT OF LOS ANGELES. WITH BACKGROUNDS IN PAINTING AND FILM, ROOMTONE'S SOUND IS AN IMMEDIATE VISUALLY EPIC EXPERIENCE, FROM DAVE MCFARLAND'S HEART BEAT DRUM LINES AND TRIBAL-LIKE POUNDING TO NICO CHIOTELLIS' PENETRATING MELODIES AND TEXTURED GUITARS, THE CINEMATIC RELEASE,"LAY AWAKE", IS THE CULMINATION OF ROCK MEETS ART
