"Jesse Smith (the band’s only member) has clearly proven...that he knows how to write touching pop songs. He’s more than talented, whatever that means." - AbsolutePunk.net
"[Though] this melancholy blend of synth and true life storytelling, you're taken on a journey you haven’t quite been given before, and it’s one you’re sure to enjoy. This isn’t some diamond in the rough, but rather a shining jewel lost in the woods of unsigned obscurity. There’s a career to be made, and Illusions is just the EP to do so."

"Check out Dallas Electro Pop act The A-B Theory."
- Kings Of A&R
"Taking some sort of strange mix between Hellogoodbye and The Album Leaf, The A-B Theory brings an eclectic, steady style of electronic-based songs to a sometimes labeled "cliché" genre. Maybe Jesse Smith is one of these pop-geniuses...I wouldn't know, but one thing is for certain, and that is that The A-B Theory is a wonderfully eclectic outfit."
- Voilà
"Illusions is an record that leaves its listeners questioning the world around them and wanting to know more about the life of the writer who can come up with such a weird and obscure set of lyrics. It should be found in every iTunes library around the world and probably will be in a short matter of time."

"Now there are two beautiful things from Texas - if you count Cowboys cheerleaders."
- The Tune Music Reviews
Wow. You are very talented sir. Just got your album, and I have been listening to you while walking around Seattle in the rain. Your music is a very good soundtrack for this.
You've been my friend on here for a while but I just got around to listening to your music today.. Its really good. Fatal Flaw Attractions is definitely the favorite.
