Details:
Magnus Portable Sun (Self released)
Some critics have labelled Chicago's Magnus as 'post-rock'. No such thing! If reference points are required, I would say the British rock scene of the early 80s - yeah, more like 'post-punk'! Heh. One caveat though, whilst one will certainly discern the influence of Echo & the Bunnymen, Teardrop Explodes, the Chameleons in tracks like "At the Edge of the Sea," "Pilot," "Go" to name but few, there is less emphasis on psychedelic guitar effects and pyrotechnics and perhaps more 'trad' indie-pop atonality in tracks like "Ivy" and "Feudalist." Either way, Portable Sun is a solid follow-up to the excellent Sleepwalker and is an essential release for fans of well-crafted eclectic pop-rock. -Kevin Mathews Fufkin.com

Past reviews of 2004's Sleepwalker record:
These little geniuses do nothing else but pop: intelligent, synthetic, emotional, delicate and twisted. Vincenzo Lorussa- Losing Today Magazine (..6), Rome, Italy
With music of this striking power right under our noses, the rest of America rock and its overwhelming mediocrity just lost its excuse. -Jack Rabid- The Big Takeover, Spring/Summer 2004 issue NYC
...electronic bleeps at play are promptly crushed by guitars... Magnus- who just might become college radios heroes of tomorrow. John D. Luerssen- AllMusic.com
