Rolling Stone: "Albert Hammond Jr. produced these New York kids’ exuberant single – which sounds equally influenced by the Strokes and the Knack. You heard it here first: Power pop is the new Afro-pop."
New York Post: "...hopelessly catchy..."
SPIN: "The Postelles…serve up a hooked-at-the-gills, head-bobbing rock'n'roll groove. And nowhere is their sound as refined as ..," the band's swaying new single featuring the production work…of Strokes axeman Albert Hammond Jr."
SPIN: "A pitch-perfect set from NYC retro rockers the Postelles."
My Old Kentucky Blog: "Imagine a more modern take on the soundtrack to a 1950s prom with some Brit-pop zest thrown in for good measure. It's the kind of pop that makes you wanna twist and shout, or whatever it is the hipsters are doing these days."
The Modern Age: "The Postelles, a New York-based quartet playing upbeat, pop-riffic music."
Metro Boston: "New York’s Postelles major in sugary double-kick pop and minor in ’50s throwback, mod wallop."
The Yale Herald: "Citing influences from Lou Reed to Woody Allen, the Postelles, who just recently played at Yale, could easily be branded as another overtly intellectualized NYC hipster band. But instead, the band’s sound and message are refreshingly devoid of detachment, unafraid to veer into the cliché, if only for a second, then inverting it and somehow making it cool again."
Viva-Radio: "Perfectly sweet, '60s-inspired melodic pop…the boys play well beyond their years."
Zane Lowe (BBC Radio 1): "The Postelles are really good."
Pitchfork:"Admittedly, the Motown-via-treble guitars still get my foot in action. It's a weakness. And, in the hands of the Postelles, it's also a strength."
Irish Times:"They don’t make songs like 123 Stop any more. It shimmies, shakes, rattles and rolls its way across the floor and, by the time you’ve clocked what is going on, you’re smitten and wandering around in its slipstream."
China Shop Mag: "The Postelles brand of garage pop brings out the youthful energy of past masters like the Beatles or a hard-charging early Rolling Stones."
Hey guys! my name is Meilina and i blog about bands, music, concerts, or anything music related.

Or send me information you would like me to talk about (ex: new album coming out, tour, changes to the band, new songs up) anything is fine really. and i'll also throw my two cents in on what i think of you (only good things of course!) I would love to help you out in any way. Hope to hear back from you :) -Miss Meilina
i'll admit it was remiss to sail you to the precipice and leave you there alone
but had i never told you so you never would have agreed to go and then i'd be on my own
the greatest romances end with the minimum fuss
you live by the sword and you're hit by a bus
you live by the river and drown in the sea
it's a pirate's life for me...
My studio will have a sony/ MCI 24 track tape machine up and running at the end of the month. I can offer really awesome drum recording to tape for a very reasonable price. Hit me up if you are interested.
What's up? Thanks for the friendship!!! You're support means a lot to us! Stop by our page and let us know what you think of our music! Hopefully we'll find a vocalist soon so we can finish our EP and start playing shows near you!
