City Newspaper
Tumul : If you come to this show for the costumes alone, you will not be disappointed. At the last Tumul performance I caught, Cameron Farash wore a silver jumpsuit with a mini-disco ball necklace, and his partner-in-noise, Joe Tunis, sported a spaceman-like getup adorned with ropelights. It was spectacular. And besides putting on a good visual show - something The Blood Noes does well, too - the whole thing'll totally blow any of your strange conceptions that "music" should have silly things like structure, rhyme, or reason. - Jen Graney

Ithaca Times
SHOW: John Wiese, Tumul and The Bloody Noes - No Radio Records (Ithaca, NY)
[Tumu] Rochester has for the past decade and a half harbored one of the healthiest music communities in upstate New York. The center of gravity has been Carbon Records, which will celebrate its 15th anniversary next year. Carbon's founder, Joe Tunis, also happens to be one of the most active musicians in the city's musical life. His noise duo, Tumul, with Cameron Farash, comprises an exuberant and politically inflected chaos-machine. Formed in March of 2007, Tumul has already released two CDRs on Carbon Records (Tension Management and Awaken This Light).

Surely one of Rochester's more 'out' projects currently in operation would have to be the Bloody Noes. This male-female duo gather performance art strategies, found sound, object manipulation, and cheap synthesizer technology into a highly compelling, and challenging, live act. Their highly stylized combination of costumes, absurdity, and tightly composed musical gestures have resulted in what surely must be one of the areas most successful, and truly avant, musical acts. - Aaron Tate
