'From an up and coming British band. With a sound that echoes Radiohead, Sigur Rós, Jeff Buckley and a bit of Arcade Fire, the band surge with emotional energy. With characteristic vocals and a wonderfully lush production this band will definitely be one to watch in the coming months.'
- Rough Trade

'The seven track EP Signpost tackles thoughts unheard of in ways only dreamed of by every artist in what must be the most professional sounding debut produced by an unsigned band this century. Broken TV, the opening track, is combined of emotive clashes and muted comedowns, reminiscent of Pink Floyd and 1997 Radiohead, carrying the same impact. The most memorable song besides the title track is probably Granite Hands, again with a unique name that you're unlikely to forget, blasting in with a strong guitar riff and bursting from the seams with passion and energy. I can say without doubt that this is one EP you should definitely invest in, as it will last for decades to come.'

'Whilst hanging precariously off a cliff by a line of thread, The Lies And How We Told Them delicately catch a breeze that carries them away with their emotive pop songs that adopt a tone similar to Engineers, Verve and Jeff Buckley.'

'A cold, steel grey London dawn thing.'

While the media misinforms, misses marks and makes makeshift labels, The Lies And How We Told Them decided to make their own constitutions and render misgivings meaningless.
German frontman Robert Raths joined Ricky Whybrow, his brother Ryan Whybrow and neighbour Declan Ferguson in autumn 2OO4. Before the year was out they captured their first songs on tape, and shortly after moved into the vacant house of Mr. Kither, the brothers' grandfather. Without giving themselves any restrictions producing extremes and contrasts, they kept on recording new material in the catacombs of Bermondsey's railroad system. Besides a revised version of their very first written song Breathe and the more experimental follow-ups The Morning and Digital Operator, they completed four more songs.
