BYSTS -- through brash, beautiful, genre-bending -- create a visceral new sound reminiscent of Massive Attack, Love & Rockets, and The Jesus and Mary Chain reframed in challenging new light.
"If anyone believed the earliest incarnation of the Jesus & Mary Chain was destructively noisy, they haven’t heard anything... Fuck the JAMC! This right here is that next level shit that’s taken decades to perfect. And BYSTS has it down right." Ghetto Blaster Magazine
Described by The Sound of Confusion, “You could call it coldwave, you could call it darkwave, but if anyone's invented a genre called post-apocalyptic wave, then this must be what it sounds like. The noise they make is huge and feels like brute force.”
SYFFAL, when reviewing BYSTS single, Speed, wrote, “...oozing evil like a motherfucker, that's BYSTS. ...it's fucking chilling.”
SLC WEEKLY said, “It's a prismatic filtration of howling, reverb-drenched guitars. It's a dangerous sojourn into a sonic hurricane in search of the vocal harmonies within the storm's eye.”
