about

"In their full-length debut, Travel Lightly, Sheen Marina jumbles their surf-rock with an eclectic mix of sounds, creating music that is challenging and off-kilter, but always tight and intriguing. Songs tend to morph as they unfold, propelled by the play of tension and release, accessibility and dissonance. "
- Laura Kerry, ThrdCoast.com

"In their upcoming album, Travel Lightly, there are also strong flavours of math rock and avant-prog, which can hardly be foreseen with the ‘surf noise’ label. This thirty-minute album consists of nine tracks with varying degrees of interbreeding with the other aforementioned genres, all over a pretty clear, reverb-drenched surf rock basis."
- Daev Tremblay, Can This Even Be Called Music?

"Who wants “Evenflow” over and over, generation after generation? I don’t. That’s what makes bands like Sheen Marina special – they keep taking chances, and the fact that they’re making some of the most listenable music you can think of is just icing on the cake."
- Ryan Masteller, Cassette Gods

"Fans of the math-noise-surf-rock haze of Tera Melos and Lingua Nada will have a blast with this off-the-wall experimental release from Brooklyn four-piece Sheen Marina. It’s a record that borrows from many disparate genres to forge its own mutant sound, one that is incredibly catchy and memorable. Take a psychedelic and wobbly trip into the unknown."
- NH, Fecking Bahamas

"unites half a dozen different sounds into one song"
- Tiny Mix Tapes
