about

Columboid's debut shatters orthodox approaches, their brand of brooding anthems are a cross between the heightened awareness of Nick Cave and the darkly sexy, throbbing keyboards and twisted party-times of TV On The Radio.

SELECTED PRESS:

“As much as they tap into goth brooding with those haunting keys, it’s when you can hear the specter of clashing rock and roll that the band is at their most compelling.”
-Pop Matters

"A tense, mercurial record that effortlessly blends desolate, gothic elements with an adventurous, melodic spirit that soars amongst the darkness.”
-The Line of Best Fit (UK)

"A dark, moody record that carefully slinks through percussion-heavy, keyboard-driven pop and rock balladry "
-OMG Vinyl

"Woozy, skewed schizo pop"
-The Decibel Tolls

"Minimalist post-punk that echoed from the walls of Magazine and Television"
-ZapTown

"Dark and menacing"
-Exclaim!
