PRESS / REVIEWS

"This Ottawa band is a force to be reckoned with!" - OttawaPlus.ca (Ottawa).

"Happiness is Sitting Next to You" contains all the elements that are required for a dynamite radio rock hit: A fuzzed-out guitar riff to open, verses hard not to tap your foot to, bass and drums that kick hard into the chorus, lyrics that are sweet, inspirational and so catchy that it hurts." - Highlights from Sound Opinion Music Review (Vaughan, ON).

"These cats hit it hard and fast with an in your face rock on attitude! Some excellent song writing gives this band a kick in the ass most don't have! Dramatic, moving and simple! A fantastic addition to the Canadian bands of our time! With all this attention, be on the lookout for big things from The Adopted." - CatsAsk Music & Entertainment. (Barrie, ON. Canada).

"The Adopted is on the fast track, with a strong industry buzz and, yes, a cool new video. These guys click -- the performances mesh brilliantly -- they enjoy playing together and you can tell. Well, I can tell. You can think what you want. Lead guitarist/vocalist Cheetah, bassist Anthony Way, and drummer Ryan Dunford are three rock stars just waiting to happen." - Stone Bayliss, U.K. Staff Reviewer for HitClick.net Indie Music Network & BandFreaks.com (Tucson, Arizona. USA).

"Outstanding performance .. abundance of passion ... "Singed" possesses everything The Adopted fans have grown to love about these rising stars from Canada. If you were not a fan of The Adopted before, chances are you will be after watching this video. Those already fans, will love them even more." - Lyric, Founder of BandsBackStage.com (CA, USA).

"The Adopted are a rising sun on the musical zenith ... these Canadian stars are poised to the ascending ladder of alternative power pop." - United Global Artists (Los Angeles, CA. USA).
