    Wow, I really don't understand why they're not huge. The album is great and they put on an amazing live show.

    Electrified certainly isn't the most original album you'll hear this year, but crunchy pop like this doesn't have to work very hard to impress the indie set. [Jul 2005, p.176]

    It's retro-pop in the way that makes roller-skating suddenly less ironic and just plain fun. [#15, p.103]

    While there's a definite sense of in-studio spontaneity to Electrified, the album's only significant flaw is that the songs sound restrained in their current form.
