Best rock band nominee, 2005 Madison Area Music Awards
Madison''s Favorite Local Rock/Metal Band 2004...all their off-kilter lo-fi pop-punk songs show an irrepressible joie de vivre as they take on dating, skating and cruise control.
-Isthmus
Very minimalist pop-injected songs predominate with demented and twisted lyrics...power pop deliciousness and gut bustingly ridiculous lyrics.
-Greg Sahagian, The Big Takeover #53
Bands on the Rise: The German Art Students-nimble witted new wave pop.
-Rolling Stone
Catchy hooks, well conceived melodies, and great interplay between all instruments...all surrounding a backbone of humor.
-Mark Hughson, Now Wave Magazine
The songs are executed with a gleeful amateurism I haven''t heard since the golden days of the Violent Femmes. Studio "polish" would only take away from these off-kilter pop gems.
