REVIEWS AND SHIIIIZZZZ“..I finally got to see the wonderfully-named Moron Says What? who were every bit as good as their gloriously cool name would suggest. Four young women grooving away, kinda CSS/ESG 80s NYC dance vibe…”

About Wikipedia!"
-Real Groove, September '07 Issue."Moron Says WHAT?!, with songs about wishing they were Japanese, a Paris Hilton cover, and a song called Wikipedia, Moron Says What?! were my personal hilight from the Convoy on Friday –cant wait to see more of them."
-The Scale, Cheese on Toast.50 "Top Singles of the year, Moron Says What?!?!, Wikipedia. With a sneaky bassline, Chrome-style guitar work and ultra-relevant lyrics, this (ultra) young Auckland quartet pack more ideas into one song than others have in their careers."
-Real Groove, January '08 Issue"Young Auckland 4-piece Moron Says What? Opened proceedings for the night, and their infectious, fun dance-pop points to a bright young band on the way up – kudos to the MSW? Crew."

"Moron Says What? opened up the night with a colorful, fruity set that left the crowd with a mysterious sugar-high"

http://www.what-the-funk.com/archive/index.php?t-2982.html "Moron Says What?!?! Has a shaky, if charming start, winning the crowd over with their tag-team instrumental duties, vocal interplay and No Wave/Shaggs clang’n’clutter. Solid Rocket Boosters was the hit of the night, the audience gleefully chanting along to the chorus: “You wanna know my vital statistics!”'

"Auckland's most exciting new band come out of the classroom to invade our imaginations and hearts with their songs seemingly deploring and celebrating the menial everyday, concurrently. MSW prove themselves worthy of the premature hype they've received."

The girls' energetic dibly-dably pop is super-duper cute and us at Einstein are their biggest fans.

http://nickystardust.blogspot.comWhile CSS were conquering the world last year, Auckland band Moron Says What?!?! were dreaming of one day doing the same. Yesterday MSW?!?! sent us two, brand new, fully mastered recordings. We can report that they are super rad, and exceeded even our expectations.

Moron says What! Is made up by 4 cute teens who are really good at being cute teens. They're from Auckland too which is cool. If anyone can find me a catchier song to blog, I'll blog

Everyone's favorite ode to Wikipedia gets hyped up and glitched up to a massive effect. It's lo-fi/hi-fi and I freaking well can't stop playing it!

www.cheeseontoast.co.nz“..This is truly a girl band, the members are still in their teens and require a parent to accompany them to gigs. From all accounts, the gigs are a riot and these girls are due to hit the mainstream any second now. I’m totally lurving Wikipedia, the cat not so much…BR>
