    A great pop album that ranks right up there with Writers Block. All the songs are plum full of hooks galore. Guaranteed to make even the most jaded hipster sing along.

    Gimme Some's relentless melodicism arrives with a harder edge than the dreamy naivete that powered "Young Folks," but the results frequently feel just as fine. [Jun 2011, p.93]

    There's no whistling, but there are plenty of stick-in-your-head moments. At the end of the day, that's what we want from them.

    Gimme Some reveals a band that is reinvigorated, one that has remembered what it was like to make music without forcing the issue.
