Fazer Magazine review of our new E.P.
http://www.fazermagazine.com/2009/07/27/sabrosa-purr-volaras-review/
Something abnormal is happening; a peculiar aura is making its presence known, equipped with a trance that is slowly taking over. Nowhere near familiar with the surroundings, helpless anxiety is creeping up. But after adjustment, intrigue sets in and it's evident that the journey being presented must be embarked on. Unsure of what to expect; emotions take hold, come and go and ultimately result in a total head-trip. Regardless, a destination is eventually reached, a moment of clarity has occurred and a life-changing discovery has been made. No you haven't just come down from a psychedelic trip, but you might as well have after spinning Sabrosa Purr's new EP Volaras.
Produced by Tracy Chrisholm (Stone Temple Pilots, Scott Weiland, Belly), Volaras takes the listener on a journey right from the get go; building up all the way until it comes crashing down. Weather you're listening to its trippy, peaceful Pink Floyd/Mars Volta-esk tracks "My Dirty Hands" and "One Weak Moment", or just simply taking in the unique blend of grunge meets ambiance that is "Hope I'm Not An Idiot", you're in for some interesting moments of enlightenment that will easily leave you wanting more.
Sabrosa Purr is as fascinating and genre defying as it comes. With the release of Volaras, the four-piece group from Los Angeles, California, has left listeners with high expectations for their upcoming, debut full-length release this fall. But if this is a sign of things to come, worry should be erased, because you're in for a good trip; you just need to be keen on going with it.

Sabrosa Purr Will Stalk You
Their new EP Volaras, produced by Tracy Chisholm (Stone Temple Pilots, Belly, Scott Weiland, Devics), prepares the way for their debut full-length this Fall.Not a bad start at all, but stay tuned, there's much more to come.
The single 'One Weak Moment' is a spooky dreamy tune that wanders aimlessly like a ghost looking for someone to haunt. It's a moody delight that reminds me a bit of old Verve. It's beautiful stuff that will whisper in your ear and terrorize your dreams. Good stuff then!

Set your Twitter location to Tehran to confuse Iranian Security
If you twitter - set your location to Tehran and your time zone to GMT +3.30. Security forces are hunting for bloggers using location/timezone searches. The more people at this location, the more of a logjam it creates for forces trying to shut Iranians access to the internet down. Cut & paste & please pass on...If you don't know what's happening in Iran, you should. www.TheHuffingtonPost.com |

Sara Lov at Spaceland
It dawned on me while watching her that I enjoyed her set just as much as I enjoyed her with Devics, even though she plays NO Devics songs in her set. It may not seem like a big deal, but I'd be tempted to play a song or two from my old band, especially if they were as good as what she has to draw from.
Anyway, my point is that her new solo material is JUST as strong! Which is crazy.
The melodies in her song "New York" are on par with say, the best Brian Wilson "Pet Sounds" melodies. THAT good!

LA Weekly review (Full text)
By Paul Rogers
Sabrosa Purr
Yes, there are still amateur Angeleno bands building robust reps through self-financed recordings and compelling club shows (and without monkeying themselves out to reality TV). Sabrosa Purr are an odd collision of loner, stoner introversion and crotch-thrusting fuzz-box rawk. They lurch from the ultra-ethereal, flotation-tank vocals and slithery, succulent guitars of "Suckerpunch Kiss" to the open-shirted glam strut of "Fashion Kills" without so much as an explanation or apology. Though probably more convincing at the former than the latter, they seldom sound contrived. Yet for every moment of earnest Pink Floyd-ish psychedelia, each hint of enigmatic early Cure b-sides or sexy T-Rex flexes, Sabrosa Purr are really all about the original Jane's Addiction -- they're eclectic because Jane's were. The heavily delayed yelps of "Killing the Aries" and "Sabrosa Purr, Pt. 1"'s druggy whimper are downright Jane's addicted, but they're lost in enough love to
forget and forgive. Few bands traverse heel-stomping, classic-rock crunch and eyes-clenched, headphone bliss like this.
