Press Reviews "Their Southern college edge wrestles with a propensity for New York drone, meshing that old REM jangle to Luna's indie pop purism, but the end product is probably closest to the wailing independence of Juliana Hatfield's Blake Babies. The result: stripped-down, well-constructed rock tunes, grounded in the same brooding emotional turf that made Yo La Tengo so enjoyable, but always staying far enough from the source material to keep things fresh." - Creative Loafing "Nineties jangle-pop, at its best when they crank up the tempos and pump a little energy into the mix." - Jersey Beat
