"Tartufi blew my mind. They're a band out of San Francisco and I wasn't sure what to expect. Sure, I had the album in advance, but I wasn't confident that Lynne and Brian could pull off this complicated sound live, I mean it's just TWO people. I was wrong. It was delightful to look around (Club) Dada that night and find that I wasn't the only one whose jaw was on the ground. I never knew I liked 'math rock' until that night. It's one thing to be musically and technically precise, its entirely another to be those things and phenomenally gifted to boot." -Amanda Newman (Club Owner / Promoter), Dallas Nightlife Blog (Dallas TX)

"Tartufi VOTED BEST INDIE BAND of 2007 by the San Francisco Bay Guardian based on their superb '06 release, Us Upon Buildings Upon Us, the duo of Lynne Angel and Brian Gorman hew a rich, fractured world out of looped guitars, keys and voices, shape-shifting time sigs, and crashing percussion. They can go from Slint-inspired explosions or Built to Spill epic to Joan of Arc-like baroque or Breeders chug in a measure or two, the shifts revealing unassailable logic as they unfurl. Nine out of 10 buzz bands don't deserve it; Tartufi does."-A. Schacht, Creative Loafing (Charlotte, NC)

"Tartufi write songs like they're folding towels fresh from the dryer. Traveling the seam between coo and caw, the duo churn out lush and layered soundscapes that billow with cerebral grace, prog-perfect texture, and a deliciously abstract abrasion that our readers adore." -TARTUFI Voted Best Indie Band 2007 -SF Bay Guardian
