"featuring hooks the size of World War II bombersand melodies so sparkling that over-exposure is sure to lead to blindness of the ears – deafness, then – it’s a great introduction to a band brimming with crossover potential."”-track of the day- CLASHMUSIC.COM

"Fuck looking like a fashionista; this is indie music as its meant to be. Songs like ‘Misunderstood’ and ‘By The Sea’ stand out a mile – Idlewild meets Cribs guitar anthems, and most importantly they mean every word." THE FLY
