review

The band's debut album received 4 out of 5 stars on allmusic.com . With their music, the band is somewhere between The Who and a mixer full of bolts thrown into a jet engine ( "... somewhere between the Who and chucking a whirring blender full of bolts straight into a jet engine." ). The album is a biting, fidgety outcry that almost conceals the intelligence that is there through and through ( "... this self-titled debut album is a caustic, fidgety yelp that almost belies its out-and-out intelligence." ).
