Exclaim! Magazine premieres SIRES music video “She’s Into Me”
Exclaim! premieres the music video for “She’s Into Me,” the first single from SIRES forthcoming album Soul For Sale, out October 21st from Station 1 Records:
“‘She’s Into Me’ is the first offering from the upcoming record, and on the surface it takes inspiration from a PBS documentary about the Dave Clark Five. The subtext, however, adds much more depth and darkness to the deceptively upbeat sounding tune.”

Erie Times-News features PLEASURES
Fantastic PLEASURES feature in GoErie.com | Erie Times-News by Matt Swanseger:
The band revels in its oddity — it treats audio like a funhouse mirror treats a reflected image. Synth lines bend, crash and wobble like sheet metal put through a conditioning test, and Kelly’s trip-hoppy croons and yodeler-esque yips are altered with more special effects than a sci-fi soundboard. But despite the chaos, it is not without moments of warped tranquillity and even beauty.

San Antonio Express-News recommends PLEASURES’ show
My San Antonio from the Express-News recommends tonight’s PLEASURES show at Hi-Tones:
The Florida band and multimedia project makes what it calls ‘dark and doomy sex music for robots.’ How can that not be good? The band is touring behind the vinyl release of its new album ‘(Bleeped) Up Dreams Come True,’ the genesis of which singer/guitarist Katherine Kelly described as ‘about a recent and specific period in my life where a love interest appeared seemingly out of nowhere and changed my understanding of the abstract world of concepts and binaries.’

Orlando Weekly previews PLEASURES’ show
PLEASURES in the Orlando Weekly:
Pleasures creates a dark psych/cybernetics hybrid that’s somewhere between Manson Family fever dreams at Spahn Ranch and Blade Runner replicants decaying. Live there’s a good amount of NIN/Soft Moon theatrics, the uneasy alliance between humans and machines at the center of it all.
