SeanP.Nov 11, 200710Wow, 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.

AdamC.Nov 7, 200710Pounding passion. Contagious and catchy. Great lyrics. This is the most addictive album of the year. A must have.

QuincyJOct 2, 20077Who knew a morbidly obese man and his three dieticians could rock so hard? What Keith's heroin and skull ring were to Exile, Harrington's brownies and neck-beard are to Let's Stay Friends.

BenM.Oct 30, 200710This album has 6 or 7 songs that completely bowl me over. "The Equestrian" is my favorite rock song in at least 3 years, and nearly every other track gets me insanely excited with right about 1 minute left before the end. LSF have a great way of lining up the elements throughout each song and really knocking it out of the park right at the end. Amazing album!

JoshF.Oct 1, 20071010 because it's so refreshing, 10 because it does what it intends to and is better than 99% of contemporary rock/punk/pop. They are the wind that shakes my barley. The candle in my wind. Les Savy Fav effin rock. Listen to it more than once so you can really chew it before you digest it. It's good gooder and great.

DrewG.Oct 14, 200710You cannot touch this band. and now they have sonically reduced all others to ashes. I wish I could erase this album from my memory just to experience it for the first time again.

JeffS.Sep 27, 20079This is a record I've been waiting for for years, and the mere fact that it didn't disappoint speaks volumes to its quality. It's an absolute blast; a combo of articulated musicianship and effortless cool. In a year of strong albums, this is near the top of the pack.

BenJ.Nov 17, 20077My 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's therefore rather uneven. Perhaps better as an EP than a full album? Or am I just being too picky?

JeffH.Nov 25, 200710I can't believe that an album that actually rocks made to the top ten list. Must have been an oversight.

The group is malevolent and charming at once, still a beguiling combo. [21 Sep 2007, p.82]

75Perfect it may not be, but as perfect as possible it might, and Let's Stay Friends certainly has more than enough fervor to make it one of the more refreshing punk purist releases since Fugazi laid down a baker's dozen of songs in the last century.

83It's not Les Savy Fav's most immediate record, nor is it their best.
