Press Reviews "... a collection of concise, smart, hum-able pop. It harmonizes like Jawbox, goofs off like Kenickie, and rocks like Pennywise ... you're going to like itwhether you decide you're going to or not."Saiki Defrances, Minnesota Daily, Mpls, MNShort tunes with deep pockets ... Instant classics ... A Thrashing good time with obvious nods to The Ramones, Voodoo Love Mint are the pause that refreshes. Try some now."John Noyd, Maximum Ink, Madison WI"They're punk rock, then straight-forward hard rock and then,they're, like, Rush!"Overheard at a recent show in Shawano, WI"More noise pop from the Midwest, this loud debut from VLM is apunchy little number that quickly becomes addictive ... VLM plays loose and loaded, barreling through their tunes like drugged out jack rabbits ... very cool ... the best comparison would be between UNSANE and old DEVO ... really." Slug - Salt Lake City, UT"Voodoo Love Mint has been rightfully raved in all the press they get ... heavy, thick and raw around the edges. But look at it closely and one can see bit of crystal sparkling and glinting in the light. Something In French is bursting with good vibes and energy." The Squealer - St. Paul, MN"Far too thick chords punch through a basic pop-punk song construction, with the odd backing noise elements ... I will give a big thumbs up to this album. Anyone from heavy pop heads to true punk rockers to just aficionados of fine music will dig this quite well enough ... Not a bad song in the bunch, and plenty of outright stunners. Knocked out all over again." Aiding and Abetting - St. Petersburg, FL
