"Perfect blend of all the greatest moments from the '90s emo/indie/post-hardcore scenes"
-PUNKNEWS.ORG
"Summer Fences is a gloriously realized marriage of Castevet's influences with a name-making stamp of their own. It's surely a love affair for Midwestern '90s emo but it takes much more than a nostalgia high to proclaim that they've quietly released one of the bravest and best punk records of the year. "
- EXCLAIM.CA
"This may be the ballsiest band in punk rock today, because for some reason they've convinced themselves they can take on post-rock instrumentalists like American Football, Appleseed Cast and dare to blend it with Small Brown Bike or The Casket Lottery. There's a fine line between courage and stupidity and Chicago's Castevet manages, somehow beyond all probability, to stay between those tight confines all the way through."

"It’s really easy: CHUCK RAGAN fronts AMERICAN FOOTBALL. If that doesn’t set you a-twitter, really, there’s not much that will."
-PASTEPUNK
"Musically, Castevet paint a gorgeous landscape of angular melody and tuneful dynamics, this will bring to mind some of the classics like Texas Is The Reason, Minus The Bear or Mineral."
