"The moment that "Swagger" begins to blast from your speakers you are quickly introduced to an edgy, new wave inspired rock sound complete with vocals that may leave something to be desired to some as they tend to have a nasally tone to them, but that is just part of the charm of this band as far as I am concerned. When they entered the studio with renowned producer, Ariel Rechtshaid, rather than trying to produce the band to a perfect tee, Rechtshaid instead was able to capture the band in a raw form and keep the charm of their live show in tact, which in my book is a great quality to have on an album. This EP is a great introduction to a young, new band, and if you are anything like me and like your music a bit more raw without so much studio polish to it, then you are going to love this and will want to check it out."

CMJ:
"What's to say?! How about I'll take four smashing stomps over 12 middling mope-offs any day. Two of the Vox Jaguars are still in high school so yes, post-pube excitement abounds. But in addition to the sheer teen umph, cheap organ wheeze-led melodies kind of scurry along the offbeat garage hooks. The drummer kills. And someone's dad here had a Fall record or five, that someone being singer Jordy Topf. Of course he may just be a snotty little wise-ass, which is even better. Best debut so far this young year."
"The Vox Jaguars are young, for sure, but they haven’t exhibited any of the signs of ironic detachment or precocious self-awareness that tend to propel one towards the exit. This is a simple, primal stomp with vaguely suggestive lyrics that sound like they were written by a high-schooler, which they were. It won’t change the world but it will stick in your head, and isn’t that why we all got into this stuff in the first place?"

SYNTHESIS:
The first track, appropriately titled “Swagger,” is a poppy homage to the garage revival scene and early punk of the 1970s. The Jaguars steadily build the consistency of both scenes with manic, and at times tribal drums that will keep you bouncing and strutting. With a high-treble bass and guitar riffs mirroring ‘60s psychedelic rock, you can’t help but feel groovy. By the end of the last track, “Homesick,” you won’t be chanting “I went home,” but “I want more!”
