******* REVIEWS *******

"Catchy, good hooks. I love the beat. It makes me wanna get up and dance!" Zoe Elliot - Sydney, Australia

"I dig it! This has a kind of energy that so much music lacks. I love the big vocals sound." Memphis Pencils - Fayetteville, Arkansas

"The spirited tones of the lead male vocal reminds me of some of the Northwest Sound garageband vocalists of the 60's, like the Sonics, the Nocturnals, and the lesser-known songs of the Kingsmen. The lead guitarist uses a talented blend of grunge touches and melodic murmurs, which works really well. The keyboard adds a lot as well. Nice blend of all instruments." BShell - Vancouver B.C.

"This has a nice, upbeat rhythm to it. I like the introduction of other voices and synth. Nice mix of "old" and "new" sounds. Nice work!" Benjamin Faust - Saint Paul Minnesota

"The singer sounds like Mark Knopfler! The band sounds like the Cars. This band has some neat ideas - I hear a lot of 80's influence in here, like early eighties MTV pop. The guitar tone is nice and warm." Marc Supsic - Glenside, Pennsylvania

"Great production and great songs come together!!!
The sound of these songs is great and powerful...
You are on the right track guys!!!" lithiumania - Alabama

"Nice tunes. Sounds a lot like Joe Strummer. Pretty nice pop numbers, good production and tight instruments." Bayden Barber - Hawkes Bay, New Zealand
