Reviews
"Candle Bags is in our upper drawer because of his infinite sense of creativity and originality. The pair from Limburg bring raw, but tasteful rock, punk and spiced with some grunge. Candle Bags proves once again that they are a promising band that lurks to be discovered at the right time... We count them among the potential of Triggerfinger,...",Luminous Dash - Bang! 2018 starts off with an amazing review by this gifted journalis: #####/portfolio-items/candle-bags-fool-for-love/
"Barely fourteen seconds and I had it in my heart. The new Candlebags is called 'Voyager' and is about traveling and coming home. It's also the successor to 'Love Kills'. Can I say that this is a unique EP? After all, it's not that often that I switch within a minute. It's garage, but it's just as well just good pop music. Sometimes it's Polly Jean and then Ellen Roswel or, why not, Harriet Wheeler? Inge Hentoray's voice is grabbing your throat: #####/music/2017/02/limburg-candlebags-launch-hun-new-voyager-ep/"


"I had spotted Candle Bags early on and I was very impressed. Independent, with his own style and identity, and quietly looking for recognition within the Flemish scene. It's a pleasure to see them live, because everything is splashing. Inge beats around the bush on cymbals and Dirk is literally a jack-of-all-trades: bass drum, guitar, hi-hats, the snare, a pallet of pedals and lots of other surprising #### even though you can't categorize them in one or the other style. It's no-nonsense rock with weird edges: #####/portfolio-items/candle-bags/"
