"Why are these guys so unheard of in the states?!" Reply
"Probably the best summer album that I've heard. Punk energy and creative, incredibly human songwriting leads to an album that's just fantastic and a ton of fun with plenty of elements to keep it interesting." Reply
"The guy just knows how to craft a tight track. It's a restrained affair; it almost sounds like a Dinosaur Jr. demo tape. Whether or not that's a good thing probably depends on whether you prefer your rock songs to pack a little more punch. I kinda dig the acoustic take." Reply

"A beautiful album. Peter Gabriel sings some of his classic songs over some lovely orchestration. I was a bit dubious before I heard this but it is quite sublime. Excellent." Reply
