“The lyrics read like code poetry, at once cryptic and oddly intimate. 'Hand over hand over gland, the metaphor-man…' It’s slippery, surreal, but never hollow. These aren’t riddles for the sake of cleverness...this is identity built by reflection, not invention.”
“Each of the songs is masterfully crafted to offer a perfect combination of psychedelic music, ambient grooves, and deeply engaging vocals. There is a dark soundscape that offers a blend of poignancy and optimism.”
“For those brave enough to peer through Croix’s fractured kaleidoscope, the rewards are visceral. Imagine Eno jamming with Can at 3 a.m. in a Berlin warehouse, while a beat poet mutters into a vocoder about postmodern malaise.”
“Unexpectedly brilliant, 'Marquis Verdigris' is one of the most refreshing, interesting and enjoyable albums to hit the airwaves this year. This is real music, inspired but uninfluenced – its own creative beast exploring the great unknown with both musical precision and fearless expressive freedom.”
“A sense of the indefinite, a strange nihilistic aftertaste envelops anyone who tries to delve into Deckard's texts ... a condensation of symbolism and elegant allegories that depict a reality that upon closer inspection is a non-reality.”
“This project defies precise genre classification...it stands as the pure definition of art, offering a creative experience that stirs emotions and sparks inspiration.”
“'Eyes Touch' is poetic, thought-provoking, and boasts an exemplary selection of words that would make any songwriter jealous ... Deckard is singing you a song where the words come to life in your mind in a highly visual & sensory way.”
“It is a sonic voyage that will forever linger in our hearts, beckoning us to explore the depths of our emotions and embrace the enigmatic mysteries that lie within and around us.”
“Deckard Croix has concocted a kaleidoscopic plunge into the heart of psychedelia, melding sonic intricacies with poetically thought-provoking verses ... [and] combines nostalgic, psychedelic rock with modern-day production, etching its place in the ever-evolving landscape of indie, experimental rock.”
“The artist’s sound is really entrancing and hypnotic, at times diving deeper in the most 'psychedelic' leanings of alternative folk.”
