Press Reviews "0-60 is an aggressive punk band with a great sound... At their performance on the last day of the last school year, they did a remake of a song from the musical Les Miserables that blew me away. This band is great." - The Tattler, Nov 4 1998 *** "Zero to 60 is one of the greatest bands to ever grace the halls of Ithaca High School. Their blend of Less Than Jake neo-ska and hardcore punk, combined with lyrics almost exclusively about teenage romance make a formula that can't miss." - The Tattler Dec 1999
