Press

"“We don’t consider ourselves a political band, but human rights aren’t a political issue. We have decided that for each of our 4 upcoming singles over the next year, ALL earnings from streams and purchases will be donated to causes that support human rights."

"I like how Negative Bliss have chosen to imbue the drums with a more languid vibe. It feels...elevated. All told, this is a highly listenable interpretation, and one that nails a superb depth and intensity of emotion."
