"Great songs...reminiscent of early X" (Jon Lammers, Alternative Press)
"Powerful, atmospheric and mind-warping all at once, these folks have been compared to early Pixies meets the Gun Club...awesome harmonies, and sunstroked, ultra-real lyrics...too cool." (Subterranean Records, www.subterranean.org)
