“Oh Shit! This Is great!”
- I Rock I Roll

“…Red Wire Black Wire is a band that has taken everything cool about modern music and boiled it down to its pure pop essence.”
- We Like It Indie

“Luscious…suave, charming vocals and grand, orchestral keyboards.”
- CMJ

“Drawing from a palette of new wave influences that includes Depeche Mode and The Human League, the six-piece uses synth-heavy, melancholic rock songs to paint a surrealistic picture of life in the big city.”
- Owl And Bear

“Sounds like The Cure with Prince on guitar. It’s gloomy, but damn if it doesn’t make us feel sexy and in the mood to dance.”
- Pop Montreal

“They’ve got this whole electro indie pop stuff down pat. Really sweet songwriting skills full of killer synths and awesome accent driven drum grooves…I just can’t get enough of the drum groove!”
- Me And All My Friends

“…we’ve had their decidedly darker ‘Compass’ on repeat these days - it’s fuzzed-out bass and twirling synths draw us in while references to ‘kill the old and pervert the youth’ ensures the band never needs to worry about being classified as young and cute.”
- Art Rocker

“My favorite EP here lately.”
- 5 Acts

“…turning heads in Brooklyn with their icy Human League-meets-Ladytron electro pop.”
- NME

“…on ‘Locked Out’ the guitar wails call to mind the best of ‘those British pop acts’ (or maybe Tokyo Police Club) and the synth stabs add the final delicious ingredient to a perfect pop smoothie.”
- The Tape

“Red Wire Black Wire…lay down an air tight set of danceable heart felt love rock, in the vein of Postal Service or fellow Wesleyan grads MGMT.”
- The Deli NYC

“Ladies and gentlemen, we have elite in the house. No, not one of that ‘pseudo Pseudoe’ or ‘wanna-be incognito but writing for fame’ knick-knacks. These are elite as a matter of fact. Well, this should be mention and it does. But it shouldn’t be a criterion to get considered by us and it is none.”
- The Fast Life
