Q MagazineApr 7, 2020For every screamed verse there's a genuinely soft melody. ... The Garden's uniquely garbage kind of glamour is far better than their clownish antics would suggest. [Jun 2020, p.100]
-
Mar 16, 2020You get the overarching sense that they are more than a little bored with the current musical landscape and want to inject it with their own restless brand of creativity. If this is art rock, then the Shears brothers have crafted a pretty damn impressive collage.

Mar 16, 2020As their most viscerally intense release thus far, Kiss My Super Bowl Ring has the Garden screaming as much as they are singing, and transitioning between the two within a matter of seconds. Somehow, the Shears brothers are able to make it work.
-
Mar 16, 2020The Garden sound best at their most upbeat. ... At times, the album can feel erratic. ... However uneven, Kiss My Super Bowl Ring is proudly defiant.

Mar 16, 2020The Garden are definitely not for everyone and the Shearses' talent for disguising their actual talent behind pranky hipster exercises can be irritating, but repeated listens reveal more craft than they'd probably like to let on.
