    Shit rules so hard. [Oct 2009, p.108]
  2. With The World I Want To Leave Behind, Moneen have grown up and taken a turn towards a more mainstream sound. The concern has to be whether they have turned too far and become just another run-of-the-mill radio rock outfit.
  3. Moneen's 2009 release, The World I Want to Leave Behind, is certainly a sign of the times in the rock world--intricate musical bits are combined with emo-like vocals, and in the process, the group never forfeits the importance of melody.
  4. It’s just too generic to get you reaching for your red cardigan and for your journal under the pillow.
