“By taking this unorthodox adventure into unmapped soundscapes, Earthsea have shown they are willing risk-takers and fearless experimentalists who put originality ahead of populism" - Derval Mcloat (Fresh On The Net)

"London-based band Earthsea hail variously from Cheshire, Herts and Shropshire and have had praise from my fellow FOTN mod Derval McCloat for their adventurous spirit. I am not surprised because on Four more years they deliver a spiky socio-political commentary on our horrid government and current events to the backdrop of a rhythmically fluid, cleverly constructed track that has the kind of guitar interplay and dynamic contrasts that could be early Franz Ferdinand or Bloc Party jamming with Bloomers and The Districts. Not that they sound like any of those bands individually. Energetic, inventive and exciting Alternative Pop at its finest" - Trust the Doc (Demerara Records)
