    A sadly disappointing turn by a band who's trajectory (to this point) had been entirely upwards...

    When you thought it couldn't get any worse... it did; annoyingly predictable and repetitive. No one wants to see 5 videos of the making of their album, not only does their music suck but they suck. These guys are cocky for no good reason divas! They had their 10 minutes of fame and they should stop wasting our time.

    Their third albums smells less of revivalist chic than tribute-band nostalgia. New wave knockoffs have rarely sounded so old.

    Bring on the Comets is ultimately a bland regression. [Sep 2007, p.138]99

    For the most part, singer-songwriter Craig Pfunder doesn't justify the presence of vocals and lyrics.
