 | | Spatula are a band on the seashore staring in towards the traumatised, brooding, rain-sodden postwar landscape, a group struck mute by the awfulness of it all who can only interpret what they see through colourful, cavernous rhythmic structures, every chord a fractal raindrop, every melody a fluttering retreat. |
 | | Underground pundits will probably try and falsely characterize Spatula as "post-rock," but let's face it: like Cul de Sac and the Dirty Three, Spatula are really just an extremely adventurous "string-rock" band that's capable of creating intense and beautiful music of numerous different styles, both traditional and modern and sometimes both at the same time. |
 | | None of the four [sic] members of Spatula are exactly virtuosos, and their most effective moments of musicianship are when they go full bore into a rhythmic stream, loud and enthusiastic. |
