“There’s an element to Stranded By Choice that’s decidedly old fashioned, and it’s not just their spacy, epic album covers. They name check bands like Clutch, Thin Lizzy and Mountain as influences. And you can hear it. There’s a touch of Clutch’s Neil Fallon to Feeley’s throaty vocals. Stranded By Choice have a deep, powerfully precise rhythm section that echoes Mountain. And Young and Rutt run around their fretboards at lightning pace, just like Thin Lizzy’s groundbreaking guitarist Gary Moore.
But if there’s one thing that Stranded by Choice sound like more than anything else, it’s themselves. They’re a band that is totally confident in their sound. There’s just nobody else like them.” -Billings Gazette ’23
