"Like having dinner with the Dali Lama." "We give it the second highest rating we have. Buy this single on iTunes." Broadcast review of "Bread" from Workingman's Bread.

— J J Diesel, The Nobody Cares Show

“After I listen to music all day, after I work to find cool stuff, after I look for the news, I click on the icon of Workingman's Bread. I wash my dishes to it, I build shelves to it, and I put it on the headphones, pumping it into my ears while I type away. I could tell you it's psychedelic rock...but they mix in a lot of other genres. I could tell you Workingman's Bread is a clean, well produced album which still retains an enjoyable soul. I could tell you I like to try to hear all the lyrics because they're somewhat like a puzzle, with a message you feel compelled to follow. And I could tell you that when I'm listening to it I feel the urge to sway. But I think the main thing I could tell you is to click the link and have a listen. I get shit tons of music through what I do. This is one of the ones I'm sharing. ”

— Lee Waites, Birmingham Free Press

“Each song is well crafted lyrically and include a healthy dose of instrumental interactions, thus the Psychedelia categorization. Upon my initial listen I was drawn to “Brian Jones”, as it opens with a Bevis Frond-like feel. After listening further the comparison is right on, Nick Saloman would be proud of the recording.”

— Jorge , I Am Not Jerry

“Alamantra is not a new band, but they are a hidden gem (to me at least.) Sure, they’ve been around in one form or another since 1995, however since I just heard about them they’re new to me. And even though they’ve been around for a while they’re a legit indie group. They’re a deep south rockin’ band with a lot of chill and tons of jam to their rhythm. Me gusto mucho. The singer has a soothing voice, the lyrics are awesome, and the whole band has a relaxing vibe to it. ”

— Van Sama, I heard in

“#Alabama #Rock #Band is now on my online radio! @AlaMantra rocks! Hear them at http://islandstudiosolutions.com #musicpromotion”

— Island Studio Solutions, Twitter

“☆✖█▓▒ƒ▒σ▒ℓ▒ℓ▒σ▒ω▒▓█✖☆ @Alamantra This band earned my respect not just because of their music, but the way that they treat their fans!!”

— ~Metalicious Diva, Twitter

“While I’m at the game of pigeonholing, I’ll go ahead and mention that there’s a whole lot going on underneath the basic structure here – careful listening reveals influences from jazz and blues to psychedelia and avant-garde experimentation.”

— Kenn McCracken, Birmingham Weekly

“And that seems to be Alamantra’s M.O.: blending genres and time changes in unexpected ways... ”

— Rex Dangerfield, The Birmingham Buzz

I should've come here a long time ago, didn't know what I was missing - loving Bread and Spaces (coincidentally our new 2013 album is called 'Little Spaces in Between')
Mike Glendinning
Bread is a killer song has that classic rock sound.
