“Amir Coyle comes to Los Angeles tonight and if you are a fan of out-there music and performance—and I mean the soul-rending serious shit like Diamanda Galas—you owe it to yourself to check him out. Like many underground performers, Coyle walks a tightrope above the chaos that is modern expression. In one hand he carries flowers. In the other—a dagger. Will Amir Coyle stay on the rope or fall into the pit? ... Amir Coyle gives me those same shivery “from beyond” goosebumps that I get from Kenneth Anger and Diamanda Galás. It’s as if an ancient chthonic force has been chopped and channeled into a sleek, chrome sex machine. ... Here’s a nothings-off limit conversation with this amazing young artist…”

— Sean Carnage, Death, Doo-Wop & Angel Wings: The Art of Amir Coyle

“Alternative tastemaker and occasional VICE contributor Logan Owlbeemoth describes Amir Coyle’s theatrical productions as “where experimental noise music and shamanistic butoh-like performance meet.” Amir Coyle appears alongside Alaskas on the recently-upped-for-download Astronomy Club Ghost Story 2009 comp (get it here). The Amir Coyle track included therein is an elegantly soggy ambient number, and Alaskas’ take on The Safaris’ “Image of a Girl” is reason enough to download the whole collection…”

— Jason Baxter, The Stranger

"Amir Coyle from San Francisco feels his actions in live performance helps heals his mothers sickness. If yr wondering how>? He himself says hes not sure but its a natural intuition, not based off a prescribed belief. Its a complete unique uncomparable expierence of music and movement. Beginning with a ambient drone made from his voice and slowly turning into frenzied body spirals, reaching into his mouth and crotch with angry possesion. The sonics of throwing a contact mic on the ground caused splashes of rubbery static to bounce off the walls. This is where experimental noise music and shamanistic butoh-like performance meet."

— Logan Owlbeemoth, Amir Coyle Live in Jacksonville
