-Allen Halas of Breaking and Entering

One of Milwaukee’s most ambitious and expansive artists, Cullah takes big swings and travels far-ranging terrain on his ambitious five-song, 21-minute EP. It begins with a dreamy “Setanta’s Creed” that merges the likes of Elliott Smith’s fragile falsetto and dreamy, early Bon Iver folk, and closes out with a heart-racing baroque string piece, “Danse L’Intervention.” Track two, “The Gift of Emer,” is the biggest stunner, a sprawling epic with blustery vocals, shaky electronics and earthy acoustic instrumentation that’s not quite like anything else I’ve heard out of Milwaukee’s music scene.
