Eureka California
Eureka California saved my life." - Jeremy Rose
"Eureka California sound like the 90s to me. On Big Cats Can Swim, they have this pop-meets-rock sound that is full of static and lo-fi vocals. If you told me this was an unreleased album by an indie band from the 90s, I wouldn’t be surprised. " - To Eleven
"Eureka California is an Athens band playing delightful garage rock - British invasion-influenced stuff that is really catchy, raw and kind of psychedelic, in the vein of the Nuggets comps or, say, 13th Floor Elevators or early Pink Floyd - or jumping forward to some of the Paisley Underground stuff like Rain Parade. Big Cats Can Swim is a really good record... as in, the more I listen, the more I like." - When You Motor Away
"Eureka California will make you want to start a band." - The Daily Wildcat
"Big Cats Can Swim is wide-screen, high-definition magnificence; brightly cheerful and thrillingly instant. The product of kids who know there’s no new shades on the spectrum, but are determined to have a blast mixing the colours." - The Line of Best Fit
"I say invite this trio into your house for tea, crumpets and tallboys and hope to god they accept your invitation and stay a while. Their album crackles and pops with great songs that retain the vital and immediateness that you would have experienced if you would have been in their garage when they were recording them." - Finest Kiss
