If you leave a message along with the request things will go faster. ...Also if you send me messages with questiones about compilations, gigs etc. and I don't reply, send another. I am very forgetful, and painfully slow at replying. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------What's been said:
---------------------------------------------------------------
SoundsXP: Every song is a short burst of naggingly sweet riffs and fluting keyboards, none more than three minutes and most under two. It amounts to a deceptive simplicity that conceals cleverly constructed, sweetly observed and charmingly spirited indie pop.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Irish Times: Despite titles such as Army of Silent Kids, The Saddest Boy in Town, Angry Girl and The Saddest Boy Again (a theme, methinks), there is good perky pop here, stuffed with lyrics about love, bullies, alienation, being different from the norm, betrayal and old-fashioned miserabilism that it would make Morrissey want to sing Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep for the rest of his life.
--------------------------------------------------
Viva Indie: If you need to brighten your mood, I highly recommend this album!
-------------------------------------------------------
Americana UK: It’s so refreshing to hear this sort of thing these days - it is so simple and direct, contrast it to the over-produced, over-packaged, over-positioned, over-marketed focus group crap that bungs up pop culture. We need something like this to clear out the stinking globs of cholesterol that clog up the arteries of creativity. This cuts through all of that crap and goes straight for the truth with wit and a minimum of fuss and is most welcome to my ears.

BT: Musikk for nerder, for geeks, romantikere og sinte unge menn og kvinner som tror på kjærligheten, i det minste i en ukes tid på toget på vei mot Roma. Låtene fester seg, og det gjør Jordahls stemme også. Hurra for Bergens nye indiepophåp!

Hey frk. Soda Hurra for at du kan lide sangene!!! Synes "Revenge" er mægtig, og håber du snart kommer til København igen og spiller koncert. Sådan rigtig snart! :)
