Press Reviews This band kicks ass. But just to tell your mom you bought a record by your new favorite hip band, Peter Head and the Pitchfork Militia, is worth the money alone (Flipside); In all, highly enjoyable. This isn’t complicated, and it’s not supposed to be. The band is able to shift gears from time to time, and that keeps the proceedings from getting truly puerile. Y’know, considering how silly all of this is, there’s an unexpected level of sophistication here (A&A); I am totally blown away by how frickin’ unique and funny all of the songs are. Peter Head’s twangy guitar and vocals are the perfect blend that works for me (Skratch); Pitchfork Militia cranks out fast rockers that are notable for the depth of the sound, the rhythmic power they exude, the clever combination of punk and pitchfork, and the satirical nature of their lyrics (Kingston Daily Freeman)
