Praise for the Idoru single "This Ship Will Sail" We recently had the chance to check out the new single + video "This Ship Will Sail" from Budapest, Hungary post-hardcore veterans THE IDORU. To say we are impressed with THE IDORU and their new amazing single "This Ship Will Sail" is the understatement of the year . We freaking love it! The Whole Kameese

Praise for The Idoru - Old Songs: "The Idoru included the essence of melodic hardcore over highly addictive emotive narrations that retain elements of both contemporary post-hardcore and skate punk trends...The impressive chants, polyphonic dualities, and energetic maneuvers of the rhythm section are still there, but they're even more empowered by thoughtful arrangements and marvelous songwriting...This magnificent recording is the definitive statement of the band that simply shouts they're back and here to stay..."
