Here are some bits of selected buzz from ARCTIC’s recent May/June cross-Canada tour:

• “If there were a soundtrack to the Arctic, a set of sounds that properly represented desolately beautiful spaces, this would be it.”
  - Echo Weekly
• “Arctic Take Cool, Green Vibes On Tour”
  - ChartAttack
• “Actually, what Today Brought Me Here sounds like is a sane version of Thom Yorke’s The Eraser –- and that is meant to be a compliment because Arctic’s intense focus means better songs.”
  - Popjournalism
• “The music from Arctic’s new CD Today Brought Me Here offers up the desultory loneliness of the Northwest Territories where Marcus grew up.”
  - The Hamilton Spectator

The band will be touring again in September/October.
