    Ultimately, you suspect that their natural habitat are shoegazey guitarscapes like Everyone I Ever Met and Forever The Bridge, which marry controlled noise, atmospheric arrangements and subtly insidious melodies. Either way, it works. [Feb 2011, p.104]

    Beach House may get all the headlines for this style of music, but Spokes seem destined to make waves of their own. [Feb 2011, p.123]

    Reminiscent of our favorite moments from groups like Radiohead, ColdPlay, and Kings of Leon, Everyone I Ever Met is sure to garner the vintage Schwinn- riding guys from Oregon some well deserved props from music lovers world-wide. Do not miss this stellar release.

    Spokes have certainly left a little room for improvement. It must be a good omen though, to produce something good and suggest at something great.

    But that's just it; much here is good, even great, but it's all too familiar.

    They strain for transcendent, neo-religious euphoria; sometimes they get there. [Feb 2011, p.99]
