Q MagazineComes on like an in-your-face Avalanches, with elements of Pavement-style art-rock and a punk attitude thrown in for good measure. [Nov 2005, p.127]
-
An album with a sharp ear and a positive, inclusive atmosphere.
-
Somewhat more reminiscent of Rage Against the Machine than the Beastie Boys or Eminem, the group... is as good as any rap outfit at expressing anger; in fact, they're more eloquent than most.
-
If I want to hear something where a load of people are having a blast and making a racket by smashing styles together and singing silly songs, I'm gonna reach for The Go! Team. They're probably just as irreverent, but they're not nearly as annoying.
-
Young Adults Against Suicide comes off as the less talented, R-rated Beastie Boys doing PSAs.
-
Under The RadarAn ugly mess. [#11, p.116]
-
There is bad music here, to be sure, and although the intentions are good, they are expressed in the now-common nihilism of our generation, where nothing is sacred and everything is a joke.

[Anonymous]Nov 17, 2005Ninja High School is fucking awesome. I worry though that the amazing live energy and fun spirit can't translate to record very well. Sad.
