"Trithemis Festiva, the debut album from Boston's Fluttr Effect, is so dense, multifaceted, and rich in musical adventurousness that it's difficult to categorize... The arrangements are clear and expansive, and the depth of their musical innovation is made obvious. The record is dark and moody, but not pretentious; it's dark and moody and beautiful." --Shaun Madden Featuring all of the elements that would become the trademarks of the Fluttr Effect sound, Trimethis Festiva is a daring yet highly rewarding listen. Intermittently dark and light, with a blend of vocal and instrumental pieces, the disc is a tour de force of technical precision and raw emotion that carries the listener on a journey through a landscape of lush beauty punctuated by unexpected brutality. Highly recommended to those who seek true originality." [10t Records website]
