Yet another incredible review by The Cage, this time our album Blown Away.
“Hovercraft proves with Blown Away that time only sharpens real music, it never dulls it.”
“Hovercraft doesn’t chase moments on Blown Away, they create them.”
“Blown Away proves that Hovercraft’s moment didn’t pass, it waited.”
Blown Away by Hovercraft stands as a blazing statement of raw power, lived-in emotion, and timeless creative force.
Our friends at The Cage wrote wonderfully about New Pine Overcoat / Angel
“Hovercraft keeps finding new ways to make familiar feelings hit with startling force.”
“Angel proves Hovercraft knows exactly how to make vulnerability sound triumphant.”
“Hovercraft delivers the kind of release that reminds you why music matters.”
Mike Mineo over at Obscure Sounds reviewed New Pine Overcoat / Angel:
“…Warm, folk-rooted guitar tones… dreamy vocal intoxication… heartbreak-laden introspection”
Both these tracks are quality displays of songwriting and heartfelt emotion
Return Of Rock rocked Blown Away, describing it as:
“…a feral, heart-on-fire album…sounding impossibly alive…feels urgent in the way only real music does.”
‘Blown Away’ moves with remarkable focus. The sequencing feels intentional, drawing you deeper into its emotional gravity with each track.
