Lach Today: The press is in!

"(Four Stars) - An acute tunesmith backed by a rockabilly-tough rhythm section...a tight set...deceptively jaunting." - Mojo Magazine

"East Village staple Lach personifies the Antifolk scene with his jangly, funny, pop-punk songs. His current album, Today (Fortified), puts the strong songwriting in a raw rock context." - Timeout NY

"Scene godfather Lach will hopefully play some clever selections from his great new CD, Today." - Village Voice

"Deftly blending bouncy, catchy melodies with wry, witty lyrics, this delightfully offbeat and enjoyable corker makes for a very intoxicating sonic brew. The enthusiastic singing, the irresistibly jubilant acoustic guitar riffs, the jumpin' drums, the divinely chillin' organ ripples, the sheer giddiness and vitality of the playing, the ceaselessly springy rhythms, and especially the total sense of joy and fun which permeates every last blithely harmonic note all add up to one of the most immensely charming and entertaining albums I've heard in quite a spell. A terrific album." - Jersey Beat

"There are songs commenting on the world in the way that underground artists do best. His storytelling songs are great too, rocking like songs that could be found in the jukeboxes of ice cream parlours of the 60s." - nunuworldmusic.co.uk

"And such a spirit slips through each and every acoustic ramshackle gem. Ultimate, unperfumed honesty presented in a dynamic, audaciously timed and sharply rhymed demeanor; riotously infectiously yet touchingly shocking (this guy's had a life), heart-warming and arousing all at simultaneous moments." - rockfeedback.com




Lach is the talk of the town:

"A strange and brilliant musical mind" - Billboard

"Something admirably maverick is stirring!" - Mojo Magazine

"Lach is a star! More Woody Allen than Woody Guthrie and a raised middle finger to the folk purists." - NME

"Lach is the mastermind of Antifolk, a loose concept involving acoustic guitars and punk-rock attitude, like a Lower East Side rendezvous of Bob Dylan and Patti Smith. Like black snow, stalled subway cars and random violence, Lach is a Manhattan institution." - NY Times

"NYC's living legend, riotously catchy!" - Timeout London

"Speed assaults and whimsy. Recommended!" - Uncut

"Genius"-Penthouse
