    The result throughout Velocity of Sound is an impression of the Apples in Stereo as introductory ironists, non-threatening to kids and parents, accessible and enjoyable to all.

    The perfect soundtrack to a hazy autumn evening. [Nov 2002, p.96]

    Compresses eleven impeccable examples of retro-cool songcraft into twenty-eight minutes that don't give a damn what year it is.
  5. The A.V. Club
    60
    As a hard punch of melodic garage rock, Velocity works just fine; it's certainly as serviceable as just about anything by The Vines.
  6. Magnet

    Like a handful of Flinstones Chewables, Velocity is sugary, prehistoric and well-intentioned, but Apples don't make a meal. [#56, p.78]
