Around Sound love keeps rolling in!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Around Sound reminds us of what a consummate musician Polizze is (he plays everything here), and puts his songwriting talents right up front. The result is like someone roaming the rugged frontiers on a personal spirit quest... Polizze inhabits his own dreamy, dark landscape on this fantastical and inspired outing.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thanks and RnR magazine for the kind words!
