released January 28, 2010

For those that appreciate the craft of songwriting, "Heavy Gold" has a timeless quality. Der Standard

The songs are of high quality, as we have come to expect from this quartet, though this time with a twist of melancholy...Here they've mastered new territories without losing any of their strengths: great record. Now

Arranged, performed and produced with great diversity, deftly navigating genres like new wave, Americana and soft rock without deteriorating into noise. "A Hole Under Your Feet" could pass for an Oasis number...Cool! **** Westzeit, Germany

"Heavy Gold & the Great Return of the Stereo Chorus" is entertainment at its best and has the potential to become a huge hit in the indie world. Legacy Magazine, 12/15 rating, Germany

In their more experimental moments, with songs like "Don't Lose Your Head," and with the album intro, Velojet are reminiscent of that pop wunderkind from Mannheim Konstantin Gropper AKA Get Well Soon. sallys.net, Germany

This Vienna-based quartet, originally from Steyr, Austria, charms us with this melodic yet melancholic indie-pop album that will undoubtedly lead them to success far beyond the borders of Austria. elektrolurch.com, Germany

Indie pop to warm your heart. Just listen, enjoy and be taken away! zuckerkick.com, Germany

At its most dramatic, this album rivals the intensity of Arcade Fire. The rest is solid indie rock with powerful harmonies in the choruses. Rockstar Magazin 001, Switzerland

Intense pop rock from Austria. Well produced and in Stereo. music.ch

We definitely recommend this album, which we expect will lead the band to well-deserved success in our climes as well. indierock.ch, Switzerland
