"If a band can sound like one particular moment, TSMC conjured up images of the last few frames of Lost in Translation when Scarlett Johansson walks down a busy sidewalk and the Jesus and Mary Chain song “Just Like Honey” begins to play. Their music is strangely optimistic and catchy, with harmonized choruses about love and loss." - How Was the Show.com
REVIEWS... "...frontman Matthew Bacon sings with the sharpness of Damon Albarn and the long vowels of the Psychedelic Furs' Richard Butler. The music's dark lyrics are tempered by the Cure-like playfulness and pop sensibility of guitar players Derek Knowlton, and drummer John Curtis. Go and dance alone - just don't forget your black eyeliner." - Pitch.com
"This is a record full of catchy, energetic pop tunes that are innately foot-tapping..." - MusicGeek.org
"flawless full-length debut...every inch the classic first record." - Oklahoma Gazette 7/12/06
"...a bit of Bowie and The Cure...pretty catchy stuff here. Its definitely worth checking out." - Ear Candy Magazine
"...these 10 songs are shot through with an obsidian dark British influence; artful, epic and searing, this is an album that renews the soul and engages the heart." - Oklahoma Gazette 1/11/06
"...the group separates itself from the herd of also-rans by injecting a good deal of pop smarts. The tipsy saunter of leadoff cut "Don't Walk" is spiked with synths that lend a little color to the jaunt. "Bringing Knives to a Gunfight" is at once propulsive and moody, a mix of dark dynamics and rock gestalt." - Columbus Alive
"...a carefully considered whole that rewards repeat listens and invites introspection, it's stark, compelling music" - Oklahoma Gazette 1/05/06
"Geology is a strong product...a emotional and entrancing collection of songs that are alternately vulnerable, bitter and even playful." - Edmond Sun
LIVE REVIEWS... "They're a charming motley crew...with sharply clever lyrics we instantly love." - Hernando Today
