"Austin's Crawling With Kings engage on an intellectual and spirit-shaking level, penning enigmatic tunes spanning the alt-country and indie rock spectrums."
Lawrence Weekly
"...this record is a lovely collection of understated songs shorn of pretense and full of melancholy soul." Pop Culture Press
"To call Crawling With Kings minimalistic is an understatement. Listeners will be left amazed that the band can say so much with so little." Performing Songwriter
"This is like the album I always hoped Golden Smog would make, but never did."
Cool Noise UK
"Depression rock currently seems to be an art in and of itself, and Crawling With Kings have created quite the masterpiece of woe."

You crazy kids and your wild rock-n-roll music! In my day we tapped sticks on rocks and we liked it! We not only liked it, we loved it! I'm fucking bored. Come rock for Kristy and I in oklahoma. ~PEace~
I'd just like to point out that last night's audience was full of beautiful women. I mean, beautiful, beautiful girls. And lots of 'em. A sausage party it was not.
Not quite sure how you guys managed to pull that off.
Hope you guys kick ass tonight. We're gonna miss you Brian. I know you'll probably be teaching sailing lessons in Chicago so I hope that all goes well.
Saturday night would not have been the same without you guys! We thank you so VERY VERY much for contributing your amazing tunes and support to Groundwork Music Project!!!
