"Dear 208 Talks of angels, I think your band is incredible. Your rich harmonic spectrum and wonderful production ideas remind me a bit of Les Friction but you guys actually have a sense of humor and that stunning female voice…"

"You are all obviously very talented as musicians, and I liked the way you blended electronica and drum loop elements into a more aggressive mix. You are good drum programmers. I also appreciated the diversity of the styles represented in your music, and was quite taken by the incorporation of female vocals in your songs."

"You guys are good musicians. When She Cried had a cool Nine Inch Nail vibe. Vocalist has a cool rock voice. On the mix/production end, there may be some things I have done differently to add one thing or another. Over all solid material!"
"I listened to all of the songs and I think you have done a fine job. You do not need anyones help on this project. You should just get the songs out for sale. I did notice that most of your songs are in the minor key, which made "It Happens Naturally" such a pleasant change."

"Very epic and grand. Sort of going against the grain of much of the market, but that's a good thing, as the clubby, dance, trash market is so oversaturated and hopefully people will want to move along and hear some songs : )) Of course I have no idea what the Russian marketplace is like, but here its more like advertising than music much of the time."

"Let me say - i think your music is GREAT ! The lead vocals are really cool and the songs are awesome too!"

"I am glad to see so many good styles and influence in the same group of musicians. I am coming over to St Petersburg to perform one of my early pieces "Nommos" at an avant grade festival. You seem to be near Perm which is very far from there. But if that is not the case perhaps we could meet."

"I think you are talented. I feel the intention is deep and your hearts are in the right place. I've passed on similar bands who went on to become huge- stay focused and hope to see you one day."

"I can see and hear that you are a very talented musicians and writers. Some of the songs and sounds are very new age Clannad with more electro and rock emphasis. The vocals are strong and the musicianship shines."

"Really like your music. You are extremely accomplished. It has overtones of the great classical composers and has much strength in depth."

"Hello 208 Talks of Angels! Your music is great! 'Before I Know' and 'The Manual' are wonderful! Keep making these CRUSHING BEATS!!! Fantastic work. Best to you, Scott."

"You have great unique atmospheres and good ideas, wonderful evocative vocals' timbres. The songs are good demos, but without enough sound impact. I also feel the lack of a good drumming (real or fake, doesn't matter) and the songs haven't a sufficient horizontal developement. I also suggest to enphasize the strenght of some moments who could be more deep and interesting. You probably have to choose if you like to be more "Ambient" or more "Hard Rock"."

" I really like your music!!! I wold love to produce a record for you, but you and the band would most likely have to come to the USA. Is that possible?"

" I enjoyed listening to "208 Talks Of Angels" and would look forward to learning a bit more about your history and what you hope to do with your music."

" I am following you on soundcloud. I like your music. It is well put together. The female vocals are great. The male vocals are a little heavy to balance the female vocals. Evanescence has a great balance between the two vocalists."
