It's like Stephen Malkmus and Belle & Sebastian adopted a litter of wiry, freckle-faced redheads and, instead of receiving severe beatings for the rest of their lives, the kids were taught how to play slacker twee tunes that don't make you feel gay for listening to them. .... ..Vice.., (Lamar Livingston) April 2007.... ..This is exhilarating stuff which gravitates towards greatness the more you play it..... ..Pop Matters.., May 2007.... ..Austin noise-pop quartet Peel's debut album subverts its catchy pop tunes with slatherings of lo-fi tape grot, feedback, tape loops and needling keyboards ... these 11 songs are so charming in their exuberance and playfulness that charges of lack of originality are pretty much beside the point. .... ..All Music Guide.., April 2007.... ..Peel is like sex. They're both at their best when it's a little sloppy.... ..DC Rock Club.., July 2008.... ..Their debut is packed with ideas and ambition. These songs rock with a full-tilt experimental energy. .... ..eMusic.., April 2007.... ..

It's brilliantly phrased, and signals this album's cerebral consciousness of time and place that, by virtue of the obvious fun of the actual music, steers well clear of smarm, condescension, and self-congratulation. The contrast between this persistent, although intellectually justified, nihilism and the actual sonics produces a delightful tension, and for Peel hardly shortchanges the bombast..... ..Austin Sound.., May 2007..
