Bite down

"The ten songs that make up 'Bite Down' are some of the best of Rosali's career, and are also some of the clearest, relegating her inherent rough-edged style in favor of high-powered instrumental performances that get a little weird but keep the greater strengths of the songwriting as the central focus. "Rewind" saunters with the dusty charm of Neil Young's most restrained moments with Crazy Horse, rocking along joyfully as lyrics of uneasiness and uncertainty guide the song. It's one of many moments on the album marked by gentle freakouts, as her backing band (...) lets the song build to a rolling boil of triumphant drums, dual backwards guitar solos, and layers of golden noise that never completely overwhelm the song".

"'Bite Down' is a rare record. It excels both as a richly resonant, often deeply beautiful gem. It is singer-songwriter introspection and a high octane field recording from an unusually fertile and harmonious gathering of five likeminded musicians at the seam where hip country rock meets the wide-eyed extemporisations of contemporary cosmically inclined psych-rock".

"One minute Sandy Denny-era Fairport ("Change Is In The Form"), then cantering Fleetwood Mac ("On Tonight") or a dusty Crazy Horse ("My Kind") ... The centrifugal force is Rosali's calm, deep voice, belying her lyric's nervous energy and drama, balancing vulnerability with resilience ".
