"An incredible voice, mixed with magnific
sound... Whirl are on the way up and I feel blessed just to
have been here to listen at the start... such drive in the
music... words that rip... just GREAT MUSIC all the way around!!"

"This band is so damn good... I can't stress
enough the power and polished skill of this band and the top-rate
vocals of singer Nikki Maoz. The lyrical crafting is intelligent.
The songs are played faultlessly... the music is of commercial
quality without a hint of copping out on originality. Whirl
is carving their niche in the future of pop/rock and you can
say you were with it way back when."
Beverly Durfee, The Daily Sentinel, Grand Junction,
CO
"The record seems destined for a date with
AOR radio stations across the country with its crunchy, singer
songwriter goes big time tunes... no song paints a clearer
picture of that then their soaring ballad, So New;
Its glass shattering vocals and tender lyrics should propel
it to the next level."
Paul Zimmerman, First Coast News, Jacksonville,
FL
"Blazing through... it's her passionate voice
that sustains the energy and keeps you listening... Maoz offers
a vocal inflection like some of the best Middle Eastern singers...
add to that some hooky arrangements, and you've got something
far from Crow."
Jamie Anderson, Indie-Music.com
"There is no doubting the vocal talent of
singer-songwriter and guitarist Nikki Maoz"
Vicky U Lee, The Deli Magazine
"I have to give respect to the music of
Whirl. It's well-written, lyrically and melodically, not to
mention very hooky!"
Tim Louie, East Coast Rocker
"A stirring performance... an energy that
is hard to match... with intelligent lyrics and songs with
big hooks, Whirl are setting a great pace."
Wes Soriano, The Aquarian
"Nikki is a true born songwriter/composer!"
Colin Lynch, BeSonic.com
"One of the best unsigned artists to come
along in a long time, Maoz is the whole package - singer,
songwriter, guitarist and arranger; she does it all exceptionally
well."
Tom Yanno, MusiciansRealm.com
"Nikki's voice belts you with all the ferocity
of a Mike Tyson punch!"
Bill Ribas, NYRock.com
"Sexy, sassy and luscious... combined with
the many different eras and her middle eastern heritage, Nikki
Maoz is an extremely rare gem in today's pop rock!"
