H parakatv dithyramvikh kritikh einai apo to aystriako e-zine "Darkscene"( http://www.darkscene.at/ ) gia to album tous "euvdiazoun agriokerasa oi sivpes" metafrasmenh sta agglika:

"This record is the prove that someone returning from vacation in Greece can bring along more than only sunburn and ouzo. The band is called "Diafana Krina", which with rock elements and much emotion, blows us an insane - super, great - sound around the ears.Unfortunately, everything is in Greek, but according to their compatriots the lyrics are not to be despised. This is something I cannot judge, but a
sure fact is, that the deep Greek singing gives to the whole an extremely exotic feeling and makes the music an original masterpiece, which cannot easily be compared with something else.During a first listening of the album, and not always, someone could call them as sound brothers of the Spanish rock legend "Heroes Del Silencio",although the music of Diafana Krina is somewhat slower and in addition
more blues-like and psychedelic elements occur, sometimes reminding,especially the guitars and at least on this record, a little bit of The Gathering. To put Diafana Krina in a certain drawer, would have no sense, because one must hear this sound experience by oneself, in order to be convinced of
the fact that these gentlemen, who enjoy absolute cult status in Greece,are really good. Concerning the title, I even had it translated at the airport by a completely surprised hostess, who said that it means
something like "the silence smells after wild cherries". I would say that this surely sounds better in Greek...A person that becomes enthusiastic for beautiful and versatile rock music,should absolutely buy a record of Diafana Krina at the next vacation in Greece, or order it (them) somewhere in the internet"

Na kai ena review apo to splendid e-zine.

"I can remember a time, not long ago, when every album in my collection that had lyrics was in English. I scoffed at the idea of rock music in other languages. Remember those Russian metal bands of the glasnost era? Exactly. In recent months, however, my chauvinism has been ruthlessly chiseled away. First Sigur Rós, and now Diafana Krina have proven to me that anglophony is not a prerequisite for making great music.

Diafana Krina may be Greek, but don't look for bouzoukis here. The band is composed of a standard five-piece lineup, with Thanos Anestopoulos, the singer, doubling on keyboards and guitarist Nick Bardis blowing a mean trumpet. The instrumentation is, however, the only thing about this album that is standard.

Silence Gives The Odour of Cherries is the band's third full-length, and it finds the group at the height of their powers. Their sound is one part The Cure and two parts Bends-era Radiohead, shaken lightly and poured out in layers of breathtaking audio bliss. They play guitar lines that Radiohead's Johnny Greenwood would be proud to call his own. Anestopolous' voice is a rich baritone, which can on occasion sound a bit overly emphatic, but which generally meshes well with the rest of the band. The songs start in a tight knot, then explode into grand, expansive musical cries; they play off of each other in complex and ever-shifting ways, the product of more than a decade of recording music together.

Like Sigur Rós, the group tends to favor heroic song lengths; the album's twelve tracks fill more than seventy-three minutes, and as with the aforementioned Icelandic sensations, the music justifies its length. Often a theme will sprout out of nowhere in the fifth minute of a song, completely changing the melody, and then rejoining it to the original line. This is music made by people who take music seriously without making it overly-intellectual.

Unfortunately, my monolinguality prevents me from commenting on the lyrics. Based on the group's other aspects, I suspect that they're good. Still, it's tough adjusting to the fact that the beautifully-printed lyric booklet will have to remain (ahem) Greek to me."
