"A nicely unpredictable schizophrenic indie-pop band from Portland
Oregon with a female singer, and a sound that recalls a young Raincoats.
Once in awhile she sings in Spanish, and this is a good idea. They have
an admirably adventurous aspect that allows them to veer from Ukrainian
folk strains, to abrupt art rock without ruffling their feathers a bit."

"...I've recently become an avid bed jumper - and
this is good bed jumping music. This is what you could put on for a class
of five year olds who want to bounce around on those days when it's too
cold to go outside on the playground..."

"And then I heard their tunes and it's more like Deerhoof
with English/Spanish vocals. The singer coos and croons way too fast for
the music while the band is all "let's be prog! Now let's be flamenco!
Now let's be pop! Prog again! Pop again!" And I'm all '"SWEET!" And
both of us are all, "Let's be friends!"

"The voice of Jennifer Saez, the main singer for Vulturines, has
an everyday quality to it that I find irresistible. It's soft and shy,
and often seems like she's getting used to singing as she does it. And
then the whole affair ends with another turn entirely, with guitarist/keyboardist
Corbin Supak taking over vocals for a dance-party of a pop-rock song that's
unbelievably catchy, and a ghost story to boot...There's a world of music inside them. Their sort of stylistic
musical stew is ambitiuous and attractive; combine it with the more sensitive-pop
aspects of their music, and the result is absolutely stunning and exciting"

"Vulturines is that rare group that can be relatively
cheerful without coming off like cloying, plastic optimists. They're probably
the only act in town that can swing from sounding like a klezmer group,
to a rural Spanish folk combo, to the hottest art-rock act you've never
heard of. Often all in a single jangly song."
