LesHApr 8, 20079A wonderful CD full of irreverent borrowings, fused together in a wonderful pop offering that's right at the top of the tree, where the sweetest honey is. Hope the next CD comes real soon.

PhillipVanWagonerMay 17, 200710While "Free the Bees" conjured images of a Beatles' reunion, 'Octopus' calls upon a wider variety of influences, and fits them all together beautifully. A solid '10', albeit to it's predecessor's '10.5'

80Not sure what you'd file it under, but while that may worry some, for The Bees it's yet another triumph.

The Bees have made a record sparkling with enough wit and ingenuity to make the past seem an undiscovered country well worth visiting.

60Although combining an assortment of sounds may seem risky, they’ve managed to produce a solid album, fusing jazz, soul, ‘60s rock ‘n’ roll and playful lyrics into a tight 10 tracks.
