    Forever Today succeeds in every way that Forgiveness Rock Record didn't, and you can only hope that Kevin Drew, Brendan Canning and company are taking notes from the scene-stealers based out of Sweden. This is sticky sweet stuff, and it's a must listen.

    With tunes this infectious and an overarching aura of well-being, Forever Today is a favorite to be the feel-good album of the spring.

    Like the much-maligned puppy, Forever Today is as cute as can be--but alas, hardly the pick of the indie pop litter. [May 2011, p.85]
