    Fabulous stuff here! I'm a huge fan of Radiohead, the Stereophonics, Verve, Blur, Travis and other Brit-Pop bands. It's nice to hear some American rock with heart and intelligence in this era of over-produced bubblegum pop. Rock On PaloAlto!

    There's more muscle in their moping this time around. [Apr 2003, p.107]
  2. Alternative Press

    Loaded with lilting melodies, powerfully introspective lyrics, swelling harmonies and an orchestral quality whose timelessness transcends trends. [Jul 2003, p.121]

    Those who appreciate an honest, basic record will enjoy Paloalto's simple approach.
