    Musically they seem focused enough. The problem with this album is that the production is lackluster and quite uninspiring.

    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.
