Album reviews :
Their music is a deep and searching mix of post-rocky math-pop and electronica, with undercurrents of “new classical” music - John Schaefer / NEW SOUNDS *** The Young Scamels is one of those random one-shot deals that turns out to be pretty special.– Jeffrey Lee Puckett / COURIER-JOURNAL (Louisville) *** Three-quarters of Louisville post-classicists Rachel’s regrouped in 2008 to soundtrack a production of Shakespeare’s The Tempest at their home town Actor’s Theatre. Expanding on the stage music, their debut album combines aching chamber orchestration, tasteful electronics and struck scuba tanks to luminous effect. – David Sheppard / MOJO – November 2010 ***
