Blue Light Curtain

"Every few years, little NW bands start to pop up with individual styles but a strong common element. This can vary from guitar tone to politics to the latest craze I'll call "indie pro": small electronic collectives who regard production as an additional band member. Cock and Swan (whose producer appears in band photos), the Braille Tapes (a production team who enlist musicians for shows), and shoegazers Blue Light Curtain are creating a tech-infused wave that will have A&R reps salivating. The biggest winners in this musical movement could be local pioneers Voyager ONe and the Turn-Ons, whose longevity has them poised to be the Melvins and Mudhoney of a burgeoning scene."--Ma'Chell Duma Lavassar, THE STRANGER
