The Island Ear - "(The Basals) understands the roots of the alternative scene better than most - inspired - musicianship first class."

More Sugar Entertainment - "The roguish, energetic voice of lead singer Holli has a retro sound that is reminiscent of Blondie and the B-52's - punky pop songs that are playful and unerring. Frolicsome melodies that pull you into the fascination of The Basals."
