IMPOSE Magazine - "Stylofone finishes up the Mercury Lounge night with the most balls-out, funkadelic rock show to come out of Brooklyn. Seriously though, they were pretty rocking. So much so that we can’t remember the rest of the night too well." [IMPOSE, CMJ Wrap-up, October, 2007]
Blender Magazine - "The Coolest Unsigned Act at SXSW 2007... Infectious" [Blender, June 2007]
Music For Robots - "What a great fucking band." [music.for-robots.com, January, 2007]
PaperMag.com - "It's anthem music for 2007. It's modern day T.Rex. It's greasey long-hair, tight white jeans and ripped tank tops. It's rock 'n' roll! My friend over at The Hot Lisp said it best during their show, 'I bet everyone in this band has a really large penis.'"
Alternative Ulster (Ireland/UK) - "Theirs is a sound steeped in the tradition of quality seventies rock, but delivered with a distinctly modern panache" - [Incoming, February 2007]
The Fly (UK) - "A thrilling mix of heart and bohemian flair that makes them truly retro at its finest" - [Ones To Watch, February 2007]
Time Out London - "Your reinvented rockery rules, dudes!" - ["Nighttime" track review, 2/7/07]
Music For Robots - "If they're not the second-coming of the Replacements I don't know what. From the opening Thin Lizzy licks of Helen Keller to the Jarvis Cocker boozings of Nighttime, this is a band that is set to fucking destroy you." [via http://www.yaris-sxsw.com/previews.php?id=44, March 2007]
SPIN.com - "Stylofone's Brooklyn bounce kept things moving...got the girls dancing." [Review of 1/4/07 show at The Khyber in Philadelphia with Diamond Nights]
Pitchfork -
"Stylofone equate letting the good times roll with tweaking the beat and harmonizing every lead... Reproduction is creation. Just ask mom."
[Sam Ubl's 4 out of 5 star track review for "Helen Keller", September, 2006]
The Village Voice -
"Stylofone have one dynamite gimmick: doubled guitar leads on every hook, executed with joyous arena-rock everything-old-is-new. Go see them." [Robert Christgau's "Month on The Town" feature August, 2006]
The Fader -
"It's rare to find the track that immediately struts in with such salacious verve that you might just take it to the beach instead. 'Hotstepper' is the summer anthem for too many beers and hot weather sweats... "
[Alex Wagner's "Gen F" feature: "The Boys of Summer", issue 39, June 2006 ]
Pitchfork -
"Stylofone succeed because they're gentle and dangerous at the same time, a tricky fusion...4 out of 5 stars."
[Sam Ubl's 4 out of 5 star track review for "Hotstepper", June, 2006]
Nick Sylvester -
"Really jarring to see a band where all four guys have chops; maybe I need to like better bands." [riffmarket.com, July 2006]
The Big Takeover -
"Stylish, brave, brassy and keeps you on your toes."
[Suzanne Baran, May, 2006]
Future Sounds -
"This is music for summer nights, hot rod cars, and the backseat you know, some good ol' American rock n' roll for a change....it won't take long for everyone to be onto this awesome Brooklyn band." [futuresounds.blogspot.com/, May 2006]
Time Out NY -
"A solid adrenaline rush for you closeted arena-rock loyalists."

Remember that when you are unhappy it is generally because you do not visualize strongly enough the great things that you definitely want to accomplish in life, nor do you employ steadfastly enough your will power, your creative ability, and your patience until your dreams are materialized.
Paramahansa Yogananda,2000 Where There is Light
Wisdom is more than factual knowledge. It is an understanding of how knowledge integrates into your life. Confucius believed that wisdom can be learned by three methods: reflection, imitation and experience. Experience might be the best teacher, but without reflection and integration into our behavior of what we learn from it; we find ourselves repeating our lessons. (special thanx to the humanity healing team)
