"With a vocalist that makes it sound like every word is his last, plumply-produced guitars and rhythms that make it virtually impossible to not tap your toe, let alone throw yourself around in an embarassing dancing manner...Smudge have got shit loads of talent and more importantly actual songs with actual choruses!!! (an unfortunate rarity these days). Setting a bar for bands that want to break through in this scene." - Alex Baker - KERRANG!
"What would happen if you mixed Fall Out Boy with The Movielife and a dash of The Swellers? - Smudge - With their attention to melody with a knack for remembering punch and punk." - AbsolutePunk.net
"Soaring melodies, passionately expelled vocals, choppy verses with hip-shaking beats and a well held-together delivery make for an emotively charged teenage dream. Hand picking elements from the pop-punk spectrum, Smudge do well to mesh the remnants and call the end product their own." - Rock Sound Magazine
"Big vocals, big guitars, energy pushing out of every verse and surging throws into epic choruses – you couldn’t ask much more than Smudge give you. They’re capable of making you chuck yourself round a sweaty room while grinning inanely" -Chris Long, BBC Manchester
"Smudge are great, I love them, this is how pop-punk should be, and if they carry on sticking to the same formula when writing songs in the future then they are going to go far!" 5/5 -Alternative Vision
"Smudge certainly sound like the finished article on this three-track EP.
If the band can take these songs on the road for a sustained period of time I'm sure they'd race up the pop-punk ladder in no time. (3.5/5)" - Punktastic
"Smudge make a great sound, they're bold and adventurous and they certainly get the job done is fine style; 'StayFeelRegret' is a thumpin' good EP and Smudge defo show great potential." -Toxic Pete (www.toxicpete.co.uk)
