Hype: Much like the parade of New Wave bands that spread equal amounts of pop and snot across the late 70's music scene, the local quartet hold nothing sacred. Civil War reenactments, self-righteous lefty artists, twee baroque-rock bands: They sneer at 'em all. -Tom Laskin, 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.
