    With High Crimes, The Damned Things arrive at a truly unique blend of styles. They also marry heaviness and melody without sacrificing the punch or attack of the music, providing a refreshing new twist on heavy rock that came straight from left field.

    High Crimes is both energetic and spontaneous. It sounds like its members had a ball making it, and that sense of unconstrained fun and creativity bleed through it brilliantly. [4 May 20129, p.53]

    It’s fun and enjoyable. It's exciting, even if nothing new is being done.

    This is shiny modern rock with a scuffed heart and a sense of constant restlessness of spirit. [Jun 2019, p.89]

    The Damned Things explore a more alt side of rock'n'roll on High Crimes. One thing you can be certain of, however, is that the music is as intriguing as its unorthodox lineup would suggest.
