    Their tightest, bounciest album. [#11, p.125]

    This isn't just an Apples in Stereo album on high speed, it's an album crafted to project the fast and fun feeling of a live show.

    The result throughout Velocity of Sound is an impression of the Apples in Stereo as introductory ironists, non-threatening to kids and parents, accessible and enjoyable to all.
  4. Uncut

    Basic, sludge-grey power pop that makes Weezer sound as kaleidoscopic as The Flaming Lips. [Nov 2002, p.128]
