Guitar Player raved Infernophonic's Spark It Up "will remind you of when music was played by bands."
The sounds of Infernophonic burn away the conventions and pretensions of an ailing industry, leaving behind a groove-laden, hook-heavy molten core that captures all of the spirit and splendor of classic hard rock.
"Infernophonic are a super energized heavy rock band with one hell of a female singer. To clarify things further imagine a sound that takes Led Zeppelin., Deep Purple, Soundgarden and a bit of Glenn Hughes. Put it in a blender, push the energy level of the delivery on 100. The drummer is one hell of a Bonham like skin beater, the bass is funky and groovy as hell, the riffs are big and thundering, the hammond touches make the sound even hotter. And to give this mixture the power of a hurricane, there's the lovely Elaine Tuttle.
And what a piece of work she is: the range of a consummate soul singer, the raw power of Cornell, Plant, Dio, Hughes and a charisma that turns every single line she sings into a hot injection of energy into your spine. That coupled with the outstanding groove and rock-power of the band makes the songs INCREDIBLE.
No weak points on this. The whole album is a classic. Get it."

"The multi-gender quartet Infernophonic welds its classic rock influences into a modern sound that fuses Zeppelin with the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Think Wolfmother fronted by Heart's Wilson sisters. Elaine Tuttle's soulful, tough chick vocals (which have drawn comparisons to Ann Wilson and Grace Slick) perfectly suit this swaggering, sometimes sludgy swirl of melodic, funky hard rock." - Michael Popke, Sea of Tranquility
“The icing on the cake, of course, are Elaine Tuttle's sensational Tina Turner-on-steroids vocals. This lady's vocals give me goosebumps just listening to her belt it out and combine power and soul like very few others.”
The Atomic Chaser - All Access Magazine
“Infernophonic serve up a brilliant mix of attitude and talent. It is a great blend of hard rock n' roll, funk, & R&B. Bands today just don't make music like this. Infernophonic have more steaming groove laden rock tracks on one album here, than most rock bands have in their entire careers!”
The Atomic Chaser - All Access Magazine
“NEW JERSEY ROCKERS OFFER A PRISTINELY RECORDED, MIXED AND MASTERED CD OF HARD ROCK ORIGINALS. FRONTWOMAN ELAINE TUTTLE HAS A SET OF TONSILS ON HER, AND AT TIMES SHE CONJURES COMPARISONS TO GRACE SLICK, ANN WILSON AND OTHER BALLSY BANSHEES.”
DEMO CRITIQUES, VOL XXXII, NO. 10 - MUSIC CONNECTION MAGAZINE
“THE FUNK-ROCK CONTINUES ON THE EFFECT-LADEN "INVISIBLE SLAVES," AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF PIEGARI'S ABILITY TO MESH BEAUTIFULLY WITH BASSIST KEVIN BOLEMBACH. IN FACT, THE TWO CONSISTENTLY LOCK IN AND GROOVE FOR A BREATHING, LIVE SOUND THAT WILL REMIND YOU OF WHEN MUSIC WAS PLAYED BY BANDS.”
MATT BLACKETT - GUITAR PLAYER MAGAZINE
“EXTRAORDINARY MUSICIANS THAT BRING A FUNK’D UP BRAND OF CLASSIC ROCK HOLDING THE MIDDLE GROUND BETWEEN A HEAVY MOTHER’S FINEST & THE ROCKER IN GLEN HUGHES. UP FRONT, BEHIND THE MIC IS NOBLE UNKNOWN ELAINE TUTTLE. WHAT A PRESENCE & WHAT A VOICE! HOLD ON TO HER, GENTS, THIS ONE IS GONNA GO PLACES”
ROCK REPORT
“Upon giving the CD its first spin,I was focused mainly on Tuttle’s superior and compelling vocal chops. The power and purity of her delivery caused me to compare her to Heart’s Ann Wilson, though I think Tuttle’s style carries more attitude.”
Laurie Lonsdale - FAZER MAGAZINE
“GRABBING MY ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY ARE THE VOCAL CHOPS POSSESSED BY SINGER ELAINE TUTTLE. HER VOICE IS SOULFUL, POWERFUL, FILLED WITH SPIRIT AND LOTS OF CONFIDENCE WITH EVERY NOTE SHE BELTS OUT. NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED, THE MUSICIANSHIP ON THE ENTIRE CD IS ROCK SOLID.”
MIKE CAVANAUGH - ALLACCESSMAGAZINE.COM
“THE MUSICIANSHIP IS TOP NOTCH, EACH MEMBER PLAYING THEIR INSTRUMENT EXTREMELY WELL AND BLENDING TOGETHER TO FORM A SOLID WALL OF INTERESTING SOUND. BUT THE SHINING STAR IS SINGER ELAINE TUTTLE WHO PUTS ON A GREAT PERFORMANCE THAT WAS UNEXPECTED IN IT’S AGGRESSIVENESS AND TECHNIQUE.”
STEVE ANGULO - HEAVY METAL ADDICTION
“THIS MULTI-GENDER QUARTET WELDS ITS CLASSIC ROCK INFLUENCES INTO A MODERN SOUND THAT FUSES ZEPPELIN WITH THE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS. THINK WOLFMOTHER FRONTED BY HEART'S WILSON SISTERS. ELAINE TUTTLE'S SOULFUL, TOUGH-CHICK VOCALS PERFECTLY SUIT THIS SWAGGERING, SLUDGY SWIRL OF MELODIC, FUNKY HARD ROCK”
MICHAEL POPKE - SEA OF TRANQUILITY
“ALREADY HAILED BY EXPERT MAGAZINES LIKE GUITAR PLAYER AND GUITAR WORLD, THE QUALITY OF THE GROUP NOT ONLY COMES FROM INSTRUMENTAL SHOWCASES BUT ALSO FROM THE FACT THAT THEY ALSO KNOW HOW TO WRITE REAL ROCK SONGS. THIS ALBUM HAS NO FILLER.”
RALPH - METAL-ALMANAC.COM
“INFERNOPHONIC HAS A UNIQUE BLEND OF SOUND AND ENERGY. ELAINE TUTTLE'S VOCALS ARE TO PUT IT SIMPLY, AMAZING. THIS LOVELY LADY HAS A TREMENDOUS SET OF PIPES ON HER AND CAN BELT OUT SOME SERIOUS SOUNDS. THE MUSIC IS SUPERB.”
DJ TROY BRADLEY - 95.1 WCHZ 95 ROCK AUGUSTA, GA
“GREAT FEMALE VOCALS FROM A GREAT LOOKING SINGER AND KILLER MUSICIANS WITH GREAT CHOPS DOING A KIND OF FUNKY HARD 70'S ROCK. A CROSS BETWEEN THE HEAVIER STUFF OF MOTHERS FINEST & THE FUNKY HARD ROCKING STUFF GLENN HUGHES AND JJ MARSH ARE FAMOUS FOR.”
STEPHEN ALBANESE - CD BABY USER REVIEW
“THIS IS SOME GOOD HARD ROCK STUFF, WITH SOME REALLY GOOD FEMALE VOCALS. ELAINE TUTTLE'S GOT A MAD-POWERFUL VOICE, AND THE SONGS ARE CATCHY AND FUN TO LISTEN TO. PRODUCTION IS SOLID.”
DJ MATT - 89.9FM WORT MOSHPIT RADIO SHOW
“..from heavy rock to a funky groove on 'Invisible Slaves' & 'Be Here Now' which ends with a psychedelic flourish. Funkmeister Glenn Hughes would be proud of 'Hear Me'. If you like your rock spiced with high funk and energy, Infernophonic are worth checking out.
