    Great band! This album caught me completely by surprise. They have a hint of The Kinks, The Beatles, and they have such a great sound that is both tight as a band, and loose with their influences and overall style. Really excellent live show (saw them in Seattle), and their album really is quite well put together. I'm eagerly awaiting where they go from here!

    Spectaular stuff. Ther self-titled debut is even better. God love music critics (Stylus review). I wonder if any of them just sit back and lsten to an album without trying to figure out who the band sonds like. Let me tell you, The M's are pure ear-candy.

    After a couple of listens to this album, I was hooked. Highly recommend a headphone session, then you'll really be able to hear what sets this band appart from all the other indi bands mining the late-'60s and early-'70s brit rock.

    this will easily be the best album of 2006. if there is something better than this i must hear it. don't miss your chance to catch these guys in a small venue now, it won't be long before you'll be paying a lot more to see them from a lot furthur away.

    They make a better Shins than a Stooges. For anyone looking for a relative of the former with an interestingly rough sound and loads of potential, the M's are good to go right now; but the rest of us are stuck mining gems from amidst muck, like normal.

    Definitely the sound of a band indie lovers need to check out immediately.

    The M's understand the value of a smartly delayed compositional payoff. [Mar 2006, p.124]
