Press Reviews
Imported America - "And Academy has a DIY-style red vinyl seven inch on Thunder Kick Records available with two songs, both with names longer than this review will be. Their timed interaction of voice and beat is charismatic, and underscored well by jangly guitars and synth work. They communicate a Mid-Western anxiety set to North-Western tones, much like those associated with Modest Mouse, Built to Spill, etceteras, and come across as both intelligent and introvertedly friendly." (HM Magazine May/June 2001 Issue #89) |
