    So that's Obits: rapid tunes, powerhouse performances, great album. [May 2009, p.104]
  2. Obits create the same buzz in your brain that was almost certainly present the first time you heard The Hives or The Vines, the feeling which had you so giddy that you perfected excitement wees to rival a puppy (probably). This time, though, it’s not bratty whipper-snappers but a fine veteran taking the lead.
  3. I Blame You is where they make good on that promise, delivering a record as electrifying as their live show. [May 2009, p.122]
  4. 60
    The result is a record not in step with any particular fashion, but, on songs like 'Talking To The Dog,' you get choppy and catchy with rare raw-knuckle skill. [May 2009, p.92]
