The response to Belles will Ring’s stunning new record Crystal Theatre has been overwhelming. Here are just some of the nice things people have had to say:

★★★★½ – THE MAG
8/10 – THE SUN HERALD
★★★★ – JUNIOR MAGAZINEFBI
94.5 FEATURE RECORD
2SER FEATURE RECORD
DRUM MEDIA ALBUM OF THE WEEK
BRAG ALBUM OF THE WEEK

Mess and Noise, On Rotation
18th May 2011
http://www.messandnoise.com/releases/2000872

“Crystal Theatre is a sprawling, moody animal. It’s deeply, inescapably cinematic, as drenched in B-movie Americana and murder-y vibes as it is in the ’60s psych-revivalism we know and love.”

“Sweet… and terrifying”

“deliciously unsettling”

“It’s an evocative and complicated album, put together by a band who work together as naturally as four limbs on the same beast.”

Three Thousand Album Review
17th May 2011
http://www.threethousand.com.au/hear/belles-will-ring-crystal-theatre-2/

“Crystal Theatre threatens to fulfil all my white-pantsed daydreams”

“a much less straight-forward, much more surprising ride. Get on board.”

The Weekley Review
13th May 2011
http://www.theweeklyreview.com.au/article-display/Snowtown/3893

“the songs are simply stunning”

“Layered, beautiful and utterly absorbing, these are tracks to treasure.”

Drum Media – CD Of The Week
10th May 2011
“The result is just under 60 minutes of atmosphere and texture drowned in ‘60s suburban folk songs, topped with just the slightest hint of psych-out – think Brian Jonestown Massacre meets Fleet Foxes.”

“a nostalgically brilliant album that’s ironically way ahead of its time.”

SYN RADIO – ALBUM REVIEW
MAY 10 2011
http://syn.org.au/news/2011-05-10/crystal-theatre-belles-will-ring

“heart wrenching and uplifting”

“ the true marvel of Crystal Theatre is the perfect unison of sound and lyrical meaning resulting in an ability to transport you to a strange, peaceful place”

THE MAG – ALBUM REVIEW (4 ½ STARS)

“A huge leap forward for the band and a seriously impressive return”

JUNIOR MAGZINE
MAY 20 2011

http://junioronline.com.au/MUSIC/BELLES-WILL-RING-REVIEW.html

“This could easily be the next blockbuster Aussie release”

It’s called Crystal Theatre and I can comfortably say that it’s one of the best records I’ve ever heard. By far the bands best to date and an easy contender for album of the year.

To say I’m excited would be a dramatic understatement. I’m thrilled, exhilerated, electrified, enraptured. Aflutter.

From the media release:

“Crystal Theatre is a striking collection of hazy, sun-drenched songs laced with the bands signature psychedelic style and a deeper, darker tone. Recorded throughout 2010 in the tiny town of Portland in central western NSW, the band left the city behind and escaped to the country to record the album.

Belles Will Ring - Crystal Theatre. Out Friday 13th May

And to top it all off Belles are embarking on a national tour to play the record live to everyone. Dates and details are:
