<strong>Excerpt - </strong>“The most exciting release I’ve heard in a long while is the debut EP by Burlington, Vermont’s The Hero Cycle. I cannot say enough good things about their sound. They feel like an amalgamation of all of my favourite bands: Broken Social Scene, Arcade Fire, Sonic Youth, Built To Spill, Stars, etc……. The first track, “<em>Breathing In</em>”, is explosive and contagious. You will feel compelled to hit repeat as soon as it’s done, but I suggest you suppress that urge for now because the next song “<em>Lover’s Crime</em>” is just as infectious. The final track, “<em>You Vs Them</em>” is completely epic in proportion. Masterpiece….With the right promotion they are going to be the next big thing and you’ll definitely want to jump on this one nice and early.”
