    A unique combination of masculinity and creativity, Let's Stay Friends is proof that few bands rock quite like this.

    Let's Stay Friends is a triumphant fusion of graft and glimmer. [Nov 2007, p.96]

    Let’s Stay Friends is the most ambitious abuse of genre the band’s yet laid, like somehow when the indie revolution got gerrymandered Les Savy Fav came out on top.

    Let's Stay Friends almost captures the band's sweaty, live weirdness on record, and it leaves enough breathing room for their wicked smarts to shimmy up through the hip-shaking indie punk. [Oct 2007, p.106]

    I can't believe that an album that actually rocks made to the top ten list. Must have been an oversight.

    Wow, this album is short, but infectious. It takes a few listens to love all the way, but after a few listens I couldn't take it from my CD player.… Expand

    My only issue with this album is that the finer songs on it are absolutely blinding, but the not so great ones are pretty dull. I think it�39;s therefore rather uneven. Perhaps better as an EP than a full album? Or am I just being too picky?… Collapse
