Press Reviews
"If you feel like your at some party in the seventies tripping on spiked fruit punch when listening to 'What it' Section 8's first cut on "Let's Go to Mars", than just go with it. Laced with infectious guitar work and spun masterfully with strong vocals by the Eddie Vedder-ish Dominic Palmintier, this debut is a force to be reckoned with. Driving hard and heavy, yet somehow slickly restrained, band members are tighter than an egg white facial." MUSIC MANIC |
