"A very fresh and active sounding album. The guitar work is fantastic, the singing is emotional and powerful and the songwriting is extremely original. Only complaints being it gets a bit samey, but we'll see if it gets better with each listen." Reply

"The presidential election of Barak Obama was meant to have heralded in a new era for America, and Bruce Springsteen was ready to celebrate with his new album.

"A fantastic Indie-Punk album. The album can really only be described as 'Fun'. That's what it is, a few people rocking out on their guitars and having fun with it. As for the actual band, it's a very sad story, and may the members rest in peace." Reply
