Rooney is the real deal, and this self-titled debut is perfect summer pop fun that aims to bring a little sophistication to the tried-and-true mainstream boredom, referencing the past and updating it for the present.

Q MagazineThe feelgood hit of the summer? Quite possibly. [Sep 2003, p.110]
-
BlenderSimple, charming and surprisingly innocent. [#17, p.143]
-
An acceptably underwhelming, state of the art, guitar-centric pop record.
-
The album's quirky appeal is reflective of Rooney's self-assuredness as musicians.

Alternative PressThere are enough sparkly pop moments here to suggest Rooney could become, like the best Hollywood exports, a guilty pleasure. [Aug 2003, p.105]
-
The band's performances are utterly competent yet numbingly risk-free.
