    Their bouncily hummable tunes and tortured lyrics about girls might evoke thoughts of groups like Weezer, but these guys aren't nerd-rock clones.

    The first pleasant surprise of 2004.

    While there is a fair fetter of kook in here – it’s hard to sing histrionically and American and have a wirbly organ thing without sounding a little trite - this desire to geek out is mixed with a warm and thoughtful structural progression that, while never breaking the gasp-o-meter, makes for a pleasing enough debut.
  5. Q Magazine

    Swinging, scratchy indie-pop, with see-sawing melodies, emotive vocals and frustrated tales. [Jul 2004, p.127]

    The more poppy songs here are remarkably good.... But be aware that it's often a jarring listen.

    The critics got it wrong on this one. This is an amazing album from an amazing band. Don't hesitate to buy this album. It's lots of fun.
