“Rock Control is nothing if not fun: 30 minutes of fun-before-fashion bop-along guitar rock that recalls Warhol contemporaries T. Rex, The Kinks, and maybe some Beatles for good measure...Put ’em together with Squaaks’ warehouse of guitar hooks...and Rock Control‘s a fine ride. It’s an exciting take.” - Michael Byrne (City Paper, 9/26/07)
“The band’s description of their own sound as ‘visceral guitars, driving rhythm and catchy melodies’ is right on the money. Part sixties garage rock, part eighties post-punk, their new album Rock Control is filled with songs that are lighthearted and catchy." - (www.bagofsongs.blogspot.com, 10/10/07)
"You think you're going to hear the standard pop tunes all the way through, but Squaaks tweaks their sound a little on each song leaving you off balance, but craving more. They're risk takers...and it pays off in the end. In 2007 they released Rock Control on Flatmeat Records. I suggest you go get it!" - (http://pastaprima.blogspot.com/, 01/08/08)
"Damn good and energetic live." - Al Shipley (City Paper, 4/4/08)
"Rock Control is a remarkable warm album, filled to the brim with melodies and head-popping pep...The formula for Squaaks is equal parts garage rock and Pixies-style postpunk, with zero pretension." - (http://liarsociety.tripod.com/blog/, 08/04/08)
*please hit stop on the music player above before enjoying the video*
"This clip for Rock Control's "Everything Twice" alternates between live show footage and some rather interesting low tech flying sequences. This is one of the most entertaining local videos that I have seen all year." -(http://instrumentalanalysis.blogspot.com, 10/09/07)
