the last new york city rock n' roll band ever formed
"If this is the only album the band ever does, at worst it’ll be a cult classic, a vivid look at what New York was like at the end of the decade from the point of view of an everyday crew who “just want to play with the cool kids.” And if the scene they want so badly gets any more momentum and starts to take over the city - things are starting to look good, right about now - this will be the start of something really big. It’s awfully early in the year, but it looks like this is the best album of 2009."- Lucid Culture
