"The Danglers create crazy, insane, addictive musical mania .…the very type of music that Presidential candidate Rick Santorum wants to ban forever" (Dante)

"…this certainly isn`t commercial lightweight psychedelia or average Prog-Rock playfulness."

"A voyage through an album of The Danglers music is a journey through the history of the key acts in the development of progressive and experimental music."

"…reminds me at times of an Appalachian version of King Crimson. Dark folky violin melodies merge with jazzy rhythms and angular contrabass riffs into strange waltzing tunes - interesting stuff…"

"Prog meets punk, meets downright weird! Really different music, and so many styles, check them out."

"Another remarkable thing is their feeling and expression extracted from the instruments played, which sometimes contributes to create an intense sound chaos."

"The Danglers often sound like they could have given King Crimson, circa “21st Century Schizoid Man,” a run for the stage."

"Few bands in Milwaukee have earned the kind of reputation for searing live performances that The Danglers enjoy."

“It's not just this Milwaukee trio's instrumentation- Upright Bass, violin, and drums- that charms me. It's what they do with it.”

"...harkens back to the blazing fury and dexterity of early progressive rock―before it hardened into the genre conventions of prog."

"Headbangers, shred-masters and aficionados of all things hard and heavy will be into the Danglers, who fall on the rowdier side of the prog-rock fence and will be one of the loudest acts at Summerfest this year."

“A fervent devotion to their artform and instruments comes across in The Danglers' unabashedly emotional sets”

“The Danglers are musical alchemists of the finest sort.”

“This noisey combo from Milwaukee, Wisc., virtually rewrites the rules of music, seemlessly referencing countless genres without once lapsing into pastiche”

“...a surreal mix of musical abandon and medieval manners”

“The songs evoke emotion--pull it out of you...reach a spot on your heart that was dirtied years ago, and make it red again”

“If you like to be pleasantly-OK, outrageously-surprised by music, see this show”

“Casually, almost unpremeditatedly, the guitarless trio melds influences, ideas, and worlds many keep fenced apart.”

“Loveall's mastery, Gelting's fluid intensity, and Sparrow's percussive genius have long set the standard for live performance....”

“It sounds eerily familiar, yet unlike anything you have ever heard before. If you were to throw Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Jeff Buckley, and the Black Keys into a blender, you would come out with something resembling The Danglers”

"Experimenting with sound like this is fun for any drummer to try every so often; Sparrow makes an art of it"

"What more can possibly be said about The Danglers? How many thesauri do we have to burn through trying to find a new superlative?"

“Their instrumentation defies the norm: Jason Loveall's mastery of violin and Dave Gelting's prowess on standup bass defines their signature sound. John Sparrow, arguably the best player to pick up a pair of sticks, brings it all together with a style reminiscent of Buddy Rich."”

"It’s hard to tell how Milwaukee trio The Danglers keeps up the near-constant suspense of its live shows, until folks notice that the members are simply playing the fuck out of their fiddle, double bass, and drums."
