"Song topics are likewise ridiculous but loveable. On "Winter Coats," B!TOHOS extol the virtues of beards: "For every boy who wants to look grizzly, there's a girl who wants to get busy." "Champ" is an ode to the Lake Champlain Monster. There's definitely plenty of kitsch value here.
Sonically, these New Yorkers are akin to the Ultimate Power Duo, or perhaps The Wet Secrets with some additional synth weight. On "Front Row Seats For The Great Beast," they're dead ringers for The Lovely Feathers. Much of this album would make a good soundtrack to modern, irreverent sci-fi action movies like Tank Girl.
Big American Godzilla Party is often puzzling and over-the-top, but it gets significantly more fun with successive listens."

"Over a charging death-disco beat led by drummer Seth Tillinghast, vocalist Matt “Terd” Ferguson cries, “Monster of Lake Champlain, where are you?!” in a way that Screamin’ Jay Hawkins might, if cast in an episode of Scooby Doo. For most bands, this sort of thing would serve as a cute gimmick, but mythical beasts, robots, epic battles, and pop-cultural in-jokes are central to Beware!’s very identity. " -Josh Potter, www.metroland.net
"Sea Monsters, cartoon characters, zombies and the true origins of the mythical El Chupacabre — it's all in a day's work for BEWARE! the Other Head of Science." -Brian McElhiney, The Schenectady Gazette
