Some reviews/press:
"The opposites attract relationship between his ethereal musical soundscapes and his incredibly smooth vocals is compelling. Overall, his music is an amalgamation of glitch, shoegaze, jazz, folk rock, pop and psychedelic progression" - http://itsnotthebandihateitstheirfans.blogspot.com/
"Shmu [has] released a stellar collection of solo tracks titled “Discipline/Communication” “Fester” I listened to [...] over and over. Shmu’s vocals are outstanding. He’s a great singer, plain and simple." - http://luxinaustin.wordpress.com/
