Pitchfork 7.8 : “Exposion isn't so easily characterized--and the group comes off as more versatile, more than DIY Nuggets throwbacks....a band this chaotic and unpredictable probably designed those tracks to twist and turn that way in the first” place...”

New York Times: “...the album accurately captures a stagebound aesthetic that’s messy by design and constitutionally wary of settling into a single groove for too long... the group gives the canny impression of knowing more than it lets on.”

Blender: “This Austin trio makes a uniquely wigged-out noise, like genuine Lone Star lone wolves, mixing psychedelic boogie and spastic punk (á la ’80s titans the Minutemen) into shifty, sharp songs that whirl by like tornados with ADD..”

Little Bio on White Denim and "Exposion"
In the wake of last years much beloved Let's Talk About It EP and the free RCRD LBL EP, the Austin based power trio will return stateside to release the self produced, full length "Exposion".

"Exposion" is a collection of songs recorded by White Denim in the home studio of drummer Joshua Block. The recordings were made on Saturday afternoons during the spring, summer, and winter months of 2007. This debut reveals the band playing to some of its more subtle strengths, setting itself apart from the group's existing output by unfolding more slowly and methodically. Only during the beginning half of side two do we hear the mad urgency displayed in the majority of the trio's previous work. What we come to know by the end of this record is a band unafraid to take risks.

The three balance familiarity and originality with unassuming confidence, taking great joy in every aspect of the music. "Exposion" is the work of three friends negotiating with infinite possibility.
