“Swords' debut EP Black Balloon stands out from the rest of the pack, for they are a band completely unafraid to explore the sonic space and textures available to them and the resulting effect is an incredibly satisfying listen.”
- Entertainment.ie“

Each track is a testimony to how talented and multifaceted this band are; while the genre remains electronica throughout, each song offers something different, be it a potential dance-floor anthem, clever musical/vocal composition, beauty or complexity.”
