Both beautiful and technical but not spastic, thematic but not cheesy, hard but delicate." "This band [Giraffe Tongue Orchestra] has been a long time coming. Now that we have actually started creating together, it's great to see it all materialize into what I feel is some really interesting material." says Weinman.

It's even surprised me!"
