Earth Journalists Sing Our Praisefor Space Punk Starlet:
"the songs are doggedly interesting time and again . . . The Frontier Brothers achieve something I've never quite heard before: a punky sort of rock that isn't afraid to dress up with some Bacharachian fussiness." - Oct. 10, 2008 Houston Chronicle
"though the frontier brothers retro-robotic-interstellar-galatic gimmick and those suits have gained them a lot of attention, their quirky musical style justifies it"- Nov 25th, 2008 - Texas Music Matters
Favorite Albums of 2008 - Honorable Mention - Dec. 2008 - Andy Whitman - Paste Magazine
"Thrilling cinematic intensity. As debuts go, this Starlet is a keeper." - Dec 24th, 2008 - Fort Worth Star Telegram
"organic sounds like the acoustic guitar of "Plastic Bag" and Neil Young-inspired harmonica of "The Future Is" clash with fuzzy guitar and distorted synthesizers to create joyful messes. . . . well-crafted. . .The love child of Randy Newman and Stephen Malkmus" - Oct. 16, 2008 - Dallas Observer
"Combining honest to goodness fun with Bowie like musicality, the record goes from sounding big and happy to raw to downright luscious and beautiful." . . . "Quite a few people are becoming hip to this Austin trio, and my humble guess is many more will be after this release." - Sept. 22, 2008 - Austin Daze 70
for Solar Power Struggle:
"Party punk has a new face with The Frontier Brothers. Their five song e.p. should be sought out and listened to repeatedly." - PopSyndicate.Com
"It makes our toes tap. Verdict: Friends indeed." - MTV Subterranean Blog
"It's as good an indie pop virus as you could find, catchy/hooky like flypaper, and then never want to let go." - BD Fischer - AustinSound.Net
"Dividing their time between Fort Worth and Austin (and not sounding like anything you'd expect from either scene), Brett Moses, Marshall Galactic, and Travis Newman have a love for the pure pleasures of music-making that's evident all over their soon-to-be-released sophomore record, the e.p. Solar Power Struggle!" - Fort Worth Weekly
for Electronic Progress:
"Despite its astronaut image, this band's all about earthly love." - Houston Press ***
"Their "debut EP, Electronic Progress, suggests loopy Fountains of Wayne style lyrics married to the sonic madness of Ween." - The Fort Worth Star Telegram
even more:
"The Frontier Brothers cover the territory between The Beach Boys and The Kinks, with just a touch of mad Syd Barrett"- Vivien Goldman - BBC America
"The perfect soundtrack for your next rock'n'roll space party"- Whitney Matheson - USA Today Pop Candy
