"Marilyn Carino sings about troubled longings and bleak surreal visions, while Ben Rubin surrounds her melancholy voice with brooding, minor-key tracks that start with electric piano and venture into smoky, ominous lounge territory, somewhere between Fiona Apple and Morcheeba." (Jon Pareles)    - NEW YORK TIMES

"There's post-rock, post-punk, and now, post-trip-hop. In the hands of the smoldering vocalist Marilyn Carino and the producer, bassist, and multi-instrumentalist Ben Rubin, down-tempo beats, haunted-matinée-style organ playing, and electronic flourishes coalesce into something familiar yet wholly unique." (John Donohue)  - THE NEW YORKER

"Mudville features Marilyn Carino's sultry vocals pouring out poetic lyrics filled with imagery... (with) an other-worldly blues-jazz feel you'd hear in a lounge or in a Jim Jarmusch film." (Mary Huhn)   - NEW YORK POST
