"At just five tracks in length, the Ringo Deathstarr EP is easy to listen to so often you just hear it in your head all the time." "Hopefully a full-length record isn't too far off either, because the EP is dynamite." @ Clicky Clicky Music Blog - 'The Best Records Of 2007'
"You can never have too much of a good thing. Especially when that good thing is screamingly loud blitzkrieg pop and laser-guided shoegazery melodies" @ Swiss Toni's Place
"It is noise-pop at it’s finest, and is one of my favorite Texas releases this year. $6 gets you a brilliant 5 track CD, that you won’t be able to take out of your player." @ Boca Tinta
"Tracks like ‘Down On You’ boast a mesmerising tumble drier of molten guitars and a balmy sirocco of dreamy vocals. This is music to lose yourself in" @ MP3 Hugger
"Ringo Deathstarr's superb debut EP is instant gratification for early-Nineties noise pop. Right from the gummy guitar of opener "Swirly" – its gorgeous, looped midsection could be a lost track from MBV's Loveless" @ The Austin Chronicle
"a corking four-piece from Texas who recall the glory years of Jesus and Mary Chain, My Bloody Valentine and Drop Nineteens. I absolutely love them, and listening to this EP made me feel 17 all over again; the distorted mess of gorgeous, fuzzy guitars and buried vocals replicating the confusion that reigned in my nascent, addled mind at that time." @ The White Noise Revisited
"Ringo Deathstarr = Psychocandy + Loveless. And that's a huge compliment. Honestly, name another band that has lived up to either of those, well, genres really. Nobody. Ringo Deathstarr pull it off. I've always said "do something familiar amazingly or do something totally new". The Deathstarr pull off the former without even the slightest hesitation." @ A Certain Romance
"this takes the beautiful noise of prime period Sonic Youth and early Jesus and Mary Chain and marries it to the sounds of My Bloody Valentine and early Ride, and creates something wonderfully new in the process." @ 17 Seconds
"the use of feedback, fuzzed up layers, and lazy stoned vocals all combine in a harmony filled rush of a few minutes to provide the best pop high imaginable." @ I Really Love Music
"Ringo Deathstarr are one of the most exciting new discoveries in years and, should the nu-gaze scene come to fruition as it keeps on threatening to do, they'll be heading it up." @ Culture Deluxe - 'Single of the Week'
"It’s music to be played loud - really, really fucking loud, so that it all just shakes its way through your skeleton as you stand there trembling slightly and wondering if music this loud is actually physically safe. Ah, fuck the neighbours." @ Song, by Toad
"At first listen, the songs come across as a massive wall of sound. However, the music is deceptive, because you realize that tucked into the immensity of the sound is a vulnerability, only it's all wrapped up inside huge guitar chords, powerful drumming, and vocals that are hiding in a haze just beneath the surface." @ Lost In Your Inbox
"Their pulsing layers of feedback and those droll, deadpan vocals are ripped straight from Psychocandy, but the galloping, amphetamine rhythms are harder charging than even the most amped up track on that album." @ Pitchfork
"everybody basically just plays two chords" interview @ Austinist
