Rob Shay - "Antenna Lodge combines raw punk riffs with looped audio effects and taped dialogue into a sound that has been described as cacophonous.
The sounds they create can be compared to a harder-sounding Radiohead or Bob Tilton a British emo-rock band. But these guys have a bite and an edge even the English fail to grasp.
Some might also say rebel rock lost its flare in the past few years with the uprise of multi-platinum bubble-gum bands and worldwide concert tours. But underground rock bands like Antenna Lodge . . .bring with their music the honest message of punk rawk music Make music, not money.
Urban Tulsa, J.F. - "The Antenna Lodges cryptic Three And One Half Eyes approaches music like walking into a dark room, with outstretched hands feeling through the blackness as the imagination makes monsters out of the shadows. Standard song structures are nowhere to be found. This is writhing, unpredictable experimentalism with a keen sense of space and a taste for darkness. Many of Antenna Lodges out-there tactics are familiar. Some of it is reminiscent of experimental guitar bands like Pale Saints or His Name Is Alive. Its most distinctive factor is its lack of reverb. The polyrhythmic dissonance seems to float in a dry void. This only enhances the imaginative properties of the music, giving it a quiet, dreamy sense of dementia. Not for MTV."
Infinity Press, Dave Cantrell- The band avoids traditional rock song arrangementsthe listener is rewarded with music that is genuinely interesting.
The Collegian, Andrea Eubanks- Antenna Lodge gave a kinetic performance with so much energy and passion you could see steam rising from their bodies as they played.
Tulsa World,- Spot Nominee write-up- For anyone who owns both a Coltrane box set and a Dead-Kennedys patch, Antenna Lodge is your house of pain.
Outline Magazine,- three and one half eyes CD review Theres a sense that their music is barely confinable, yet no matter how aggressive or avant-garde they get, they always come back to a theme of tender and sublime beauty. At their most aggressivethe band sounds like Glenn Branca and Sonic Youth battling the Melvins and Mogwai to the deaththeir sense of focus brings the cold precision of intellectual reason to a juncture with emotional intensity. Three and One Half Eyes is an unexplainable masterpiece (a post-industrial, neo-psychedelic, subliminal, alternative symphony for guitar, bass, and drums?) that seamlessly merges art with pop. Its a great album period.
