Press Reviews "The music is moody and eminently strange but utterly fascinating and as addictive as Little Debbie snack cakes." -- Kati Schardl, Tallahassee Democrat | "... a melting pot of crazy ideas ... garage operettas? ... destroyed pop? ...highly entertaining and listenable!! ...completely unique!" -- Lord Litter's Netnews | "Delightfully weird and defiantly obscure..." -- Mark Hinson, Tallahassee Democrat | "A sound like the one constructed by Newsboy Legion is nigh impossible to encapsulate in these puny things we call words." -- Max Fresen, Florida Flambeau | "...so entertainingly wigged out... ...that you can't help but crack a smile." -- Jonathan Garren/Break Magazine | "They're part nonsense, part art, and a meandering billboard for why certain drugs don't mix" -- Creative Loafing
