Review @ Damusic.be :
"Tot The Daughter Of A Diplomat waar duidelijk met vuur in de vorm van vreemde effectjes en synths gespeeld wordt.
Op zich zouden al de dingen die ze hierin steken belachelijk moeten klinken, maar bij Death Letters, op dit ‘Common Prayers’, werkt het en zorgt het voor een welgekomen afwisseling."

UK review
An AWESOME review on our show in Birmingham!!
"Transcending any obvious categorisation, their tunes span a diverse spectrum from post-rock ambient melancholy right through to bursts of riff-heavy aggressive mania and everything in-between."
"(.............), Death Letters' real strength is in their adept songwriting and its execution in a live context which makes the most of their minimal set-up."
"Most impressive is the wonderfully atmospheric soundscapes they manage to attain with just guitar and drums and, likewise, the level of energy and intensity when they heavy it up. And the audience seem to love 'em judging by the loud cheers and applause they receive. It's certainly deserved."

UK reviews
Rock Sound on their album Post-Historic:
“It’s a great piece of work, which never compromises to 1 style.”
(also featured on the Rock Sound CD October)
Big Cheese Magazine:
“Melting together post-rock elements of Oceansize and hardcore riffs that remind of At The Drive-In, the real art lies in their mature combination of different genres which indicates a lot of promising potential for Death Letters’ future.”
Shout4Music:
"Unbelievably, the righteous racket created by Dutch post-rockers Death Letters is the product of just two people;singer/guitarist Duende Ariza Lora and drummer Victor Brandt have, with the help of former Dandy Warhols and …Trail of Dead producer Chris Smith, created a sophomore album of blistering power yet restrained aggression that deserves to enjoy a long future as a classic of the genre." 9/10![]()
Rock Sound!
Hell to the freaking Yeah!! We are featured in the Rock Sound Magazine (!!) in the UK. PLUS we are on their free cd that comes with it as well! Go pick that magazine up ;).![]()
Yes!![]()

Hey Germany! Guess who's coming back in town ;).![]()
Studio Update
Hey everybody!
So, last week we had 2 amazing shows in Finland. We truly are the definition of lucky bastards. But last monday, very early in the morning, we left the nice people of Finland. We flew back and then drove straight to the studio for a week filled with guitars. No fucking around, back to work. It's amazing how the new record REALLY takes shape now. I lost count of all the goose bumps I felt last week. The guitars are done for about 50%. I've been slogging and playing guitar 'til my fingers became sore. Repeating the same guitar part for several hours is no exception! Because this record is not supposed to be 'awesome' or 'wicked'. Hell no! This record has got to be, every aspect of it, INSANE. In the most heaviest 'headache' parts to the most subtle and 'moving' songs. Thanks guys and gals! We'll talk soon ;). X![]()
Studio
Making a new record is fun!![]()
Hey guys! The Dutch show is gonna be in 't Beest in Goes on October 6th. Zeeland!!! https://t.co/7NI9xJ19
FUCK YEAH!! We just finished practicing the last song for the new album. In two weeks it's studio time!! :)
Norway tour
We're coming for you, Norway!!![]()
Surreal. We're being played on American radio right now. I still feel it's the most bizarre thing ever...
Today we're gonna spend a couple of hours in the studio where we'll be recording the new album in a couple of weeks!!

METAL HAMMER - tba
"Their 2nd album Post-Historic was somewhere in between punk, hardcore and post-rock, but this third album COMMON PRAYERS testifies again from the apparently limitless qualities of this Dutch duo." (6/7)
OX FANZINE - februari 2013
"Absolute recommendation" (9/10)
NU.NL "En zo staat Common Prayers vol treffers. Death Letters heeft de mix van indierock, hardcore en postrock die het op Post-Historic al op nam, verfijnd en - mede dankzij een ijzersterke productie - verbeterd op deze derde langspeler. Een langspeler om je helemaal in te verliezen, net zoals de band dat deed in het gevonden gebedenboekje."
OOR “Ander hoogtepunt is In Lieu Of Flowers, een acht minuten durende indierockparel waarin de onderhuidse spanning bijna ondraaglijk is. (….)Laten we alsjeblieft trots zijn op deze Nederlandse band die nou eens niet voor de makkelijke weg kiest.”
UP Magazine "Death Letters heeft met 'Common Prayers' een prachtige, stevige en toch breekbare plaat gemaakt." "een prachtige, overtuigende soundtrack".
AD Dordtenaar "Death Letters imponeert"
3V12 Zuid-Holland "Indrukwekkend album van Dordts duo."
