"This five-part tale from New Zealand holds you captivated with world-building rooted in reality and original music composed by [Katie] Morton. It feels like NPR meets a found-footage horror, so be prepared to be pulled into the brackish waters of the unknown." - Amber Bulinski, Bello Collective "The episodes walk the knife-edge of tense drama while still finding warmth in the many interviews which help Amy unpack and uncover the story... I think [Apocalypse Songs] is a real milestone for this genre in Aotearoa." John Anderson, Theatreview |
