NME: "Apples have a good line in guitar pop that will jitter you out of the slumber"
NME Radar: "Summery guitar-pop with added lols"
The Guardian 'Band Of The Day': "Their songs are irrepressible and infectious, with an almost bumptious jollity."
The Fly said: "Apples have the afro-beat rhythm of Vampire Weekend with the raspy Brit intonation and pop hook melodies of Madness."
Artrocker Magazine: 'Although the intro features a spluttering 80s style sax solo that sounds like Kenny G retching, I continue to listen. To my surprise, I discover one of the catchiest choruses I have heard all day. It's so delightful, in fact, that it neutralizes my venom, and makes me actually LOVE the formerly hateful sax solo. It's Jewel of the Nile, it's 'You Can Call Me Al'. It's dumb, cheerful 80s optimism dancing a merry dance without realizing there's a monster about to bite its head off.
Q Magazine 'Track Of The Day': "..it's easy to see why comparisons have been made with Vampire Weekend, they're just as uplifting and summery sounding. Whilst they're too young to have heard Haircut 100 and their ilk first time round, they've clearly done their homework."
BBC 6Music Breakfast show 'Single Of The Week': "Perfect pop... You heard it here first!"
fuckingdance said: "Apples provide their own unique spin on making 'exotic' sounding indie pop. If sunshine had a sound this would definitely be it."
The Music Critic: “This is a tune built for the summer with a chorus that has more bounce than a fat kid on a trampoline.”

"your the only reason that im still around", brilliant. saw you guys at inside out the other night, wayyyyyyyyy better than the headliners, not even in the same league.
Was in Topman at Westfield in Shepherds Bush. When i heard Reason 45 playing and it was the best song i had heard in a long time. at the time didnt know what it was called or who it was by, i just went round for the rest of the day singing the chorus. typed the lyrics into google, still didnt come up. so asked a question on Yahoo answers then someone answered it saying it was you and downloaded it yesterday :) cheers Chaz x
