Press Reviews Guitar Shop Magazine- 3.5 stars (out of 5)- December 1998 issueThe band takes a lot of cues from the whole Wilco/Uncle Tupelo/Jayhawks school - melding punk energy with country flavors and melodies. No question, heartland rockers like "Empty" and "Brighter Day" will help fire-up your next hoe-down or barbecue.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Northeast Performer Magazine- September 1998 issueBig, hooky, modern sounding rock and roll. Full of earnest energy and some pleasantly large melodies. A club show as strong as this would bode well for the band. "Brighter Day" is the strongest track of the release. Rootsy, uptempo, and full of punchy guitars. Glimmers of fine songwriting.- Scott Chesley--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Metronome Magazine- September 1998 issueMixed influences of Rush and early U2 to create their own trademark sound.Enthusiastic performances. Best cut? Texas song! Sounds a bit like "Radar Love" by Golden Earring.
