Phantom Tollbooth reviews Chop Harness:
I find myself somewhat detached in reviewing this disc. When I receive a disc to review, only to find that the band has broken up, mixed feelings arise. Campground’s “Chop Harness” is chock full of solid songwriting and a stinging guitar vibe. When one of the influences of a band is Dinosaur Jr., there is a lot to live up to. Thankfully, for an independently produced project, it is not a stretch making the connection. I wish I had discovered them sooner. (

So, I was checking out your song "Box her up", which firstly I must say ROCKS ME IN PLACES I FEEL ASHAMED OF, but secondly, I feel there is a melodic element which must have been influenced by these buddies... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeyJOcuGbyI
