The Press said: "On the poppier side of power-pop, with echoey vocals. A bit out of step with the times, unless there was a chill teeny-bop movement I'm not aware of. The sort of group one wishes continued and developed their sound."
“Catchy sixties style music with witty lyrics”
“Good breezy new wave power pop".
