Subway to Sally are true musical hybrid. Based on a heavy metal foundation Subway to Sally are far from your average metal headbangers as they combine progressive and folk anthems with early music and liturgical references. They contribute equal parts acoustic with electric from their guitar trio of Ingo Hampf, Bodenski and Simon. Violinist Frau Schmidt can lay down a cla**ic Robbie Steinhardt-like roll with as much conviction as with the gentler, more traditionally based pa**ages. Perhaps the most peculiar element of this band lies with lead vocalist Eric Fish who brings to mind two of the more stigmatized singers in rock n roll; Lee Jackson and Roger Chapman. Despite hints of Chapman's infamous vibrato and Jackson's overall thickness, Fish provides a very listenable and complimentary singing style. While a gradual shift away from traditional songs was noticeable from album to album it wasn't until 1999's Hochzeit that their more aggressive side was fully revealed but not at the expense of their formative influences. ~ Dave Sleger, All Music Guide
