Zun Zun Egui Review of Luminaire gig, Oct 09 from Line of Best Fit "When a band can simultaneously remind you of Battles, Dirty Projectors, Talking Heads, Ponytail and Yeasayer you know you’ve got an original on your hands- the blistering jazz drumming, tribal chanting and brutally rhythmic bass-lines all adding up to one of the most engaging performances I’ve seen this year. The most exciting live band in Britain? Man, you better believe it." …from Green Man Festival Performance 09 “Most enjoyable set of the festival by a country mile.. So that’s it, they get first prize, all the other kids can go cry into their cereal…” - StrangeGlue “It’s not even worth attempting to define their sound, but they’re a stick of dynamite in a sweet shop and quite possibly the best thing of the entire weekend.” – Muso’s Guide “Special mention must also go to the insane, yelping chaos of Zun Zun Egui (9/10)” – The Mirror
…reviews of first EP, Bal la Poussiere (Blank Tapes) “Staggeringly happy and intensely creative. 4/5 stars” – The Skinny “If these three tracks are anything to go by, Zun Zun Egui are going to be massive superstars by the time they get to play the End Of The Road Festival at the Larmer Tree in a couple of months” – Fly Global Review “The Bristol outfit make a sound that should be impossible to conjure with four people, two guitars, keys and drums. It’s immense. It’s everywhere. Yet it’s so crystalline, and personal that it doesn’t just spin off into the ether; though it threatens to. 8/10” – Drowned in Sound |
