Reviews

• "Daylight Breaking could arguably be one of the best indie releases of 2008...an immaculate journey through love, despair, and everything in-between" read full reveiw here

• Sequenza21 9/03/2008

• "Daylight Breaking demonstrates that they are a strong unit capable of crafting catchy songs. In fact, there’s nary a clunker on the CD, and that’s quite something from a debut" read full review here

• Indieville 9/02/2008

• "Daylight Breaking is the best self-released debut I've heard in a long time...These are hideously well-written pop tunes - the sort of gems that are virtually unheard of on a self-released title such as this" read full review here

• Pop Syndicate 8/25/2008

• "Pure, unadulterated rock.  The sounds of the 70s bands like The Who and Led Zeppelin mixed with the fast riffs and unique groove of Rogue Motel."

• Metro Spirit 8/19/2008
• "Sometimes a little like R.E.M., Rogue Motel carry the slow, melodic introspective style of college rock to a level that fans of such bands as Radiohead can really appreciate. Often slow and moving, "Daylight Breaking" assaults the senses with emotional, contemplative, and beautifully crafted songs." read full review here
