interview with earz magazine:
"Matt Rosen a.k.a ROSEBUSH! is an Ontario, Canada based character who makes awesome genre-defying music which is a kind of mechanical amalgum of drum and bass, hip-hop and industrial. With a slew of past and forthcoming records out on various independent labels, Matt is a busy chap, getting his music out there and performing at plenty of events across his home country."

press for circle the squares (2007):
"Mindbogglingly complex ... Just like drum rolls and breaks, the pieces themselves
morph in permutating convulsions and complex spasms, tearing and twitching in agony,
but also succeding in finding irrestable grooves."
- Tobias Fischer, Tokafi
"...An incredibly mature [album]... Rosen is very personal in his approach
and obviously his musical skills as an instrumentalist (and not just a laptop
programmer) have heavily influenced the making of this record..."
- Marc Urselli-Schaerer, Chain DLK
"Trying to label Rosen's music is pointless, as it encompasses such a wide and
varied mix of sounds and styles... constantly twisting and turning, experimenting
and manipulating ideas around a theme."
- Paul Lloyd, Connexion Bizarre
"I have been waiting for a proper release from Mr Rosen for some time. I am a
great fan of his work and just can’t believe how he hasn’t been snapped up sooner...
an artist who kicks on CD and backs it up live. Pretty much damn essential. 9.5/10"
- Tony Young, Enochian Apocalypse
"This CD shouldn't be rated on a standard scale of 1 to 10 but on an awesome scale
of 1 to 10, where 1 is just awesome and 10 is totally 100% awesome."
- Tentacles E-Zine
press for None Higher (2003):
"Liar's Rosebush thrusts forward a thoroughly entertaining and action-packed technospectacle . . . pushing the electronic sounds and rhythms to unexpected extremes . . . working and reworking the rhythms and abusing the samples; extracting 212% out of the common to make a result that is 212% wonderful. . ."
-staticsignals.com
"With a bit of just about every electronic substyle thrown in the mix, Liar's Rosebush present here a massive, yet well digested album which displays a lot of charms. . ."
-Nicolas Chevreux, Ad Noiseam Records
"Fun and engaging . . . A very impressive album, especially for a debut release, we can expect great things to come from Liar’s Rosebush.
-Gavin Lees, LAN formatique
