“The complexity of the mind is a tough subject to tackle and come out the other side with anything resembling clarity. Cellophane Sam has done so here with a slightly melancholic ode to the internal dialogue we all have, as well as even deeper thoughts and motivations. I came away with an almost Neil Young kind of vibe with a more modern sound. ”
“This is a well-written song, but what makes it shine is the vocal performance. There are glossier, more powerful voices than Miles Horn, but you will be hard-pressed to ever hear a song where the artist clearly believes the words they are singing more than Horn obviously does on ‘Floating In Space.’
It is that personal engagement that makes this track comes alive, and it is is that personal involvement that makes me feel just as invested in the track. ”

This rocking ode to living it up for Christmas, puts a different spin on the traditional Christmas song.”

’Catfish’ is about exactly what you think it is, but that predictability is not a negative, because the band goes full throttle start to finish. ”

“Has the America Dream became nothing more than a ‘Pipe Dream?’
Arson Daily asks this question with a intriguing lyrics and a nice Indie Rock vibe. Engaging guitar driven melody and tantalizing vocals carry this track. ”
“Regret is a powerful emotion and this track does a great job of imparting the pain associated with that very thing. Pure rock sound with instrumentation that conveys as much as the lyrics this track drips with yesterday’s tears. ”
“This track is about attitude and sensuality and the preconceived notions of society. Kendall Rucks delivers a sultry rock siren performance that lyrically unravels the idea of conformity as it progress. Intricate, complex, and alluring, I can’t wait to hear more from this artist. ”
“I have fast become a big fan of The Criticals. There is a nostalgic quality to both their sound and songwriting, or rather I should say — classical sound, because there is nothing dated about their music.

“A slow building track that offers a look at the generational gaps that exist in attitudes, goals, and ideas. The track brings a fun energy for such a protest song, but perhaps that will make more people pause and listen and truly think about the message.
The video incorporates the family aspect of the band’s fan base by inviting them them for the filming in a message of inclusion.”
“An energetic ode to hope ... and a pledged return to what once was golden.
Scott Martin delivers a straightforward rock song with hints of Elton in the vocals, and a splash of Springsteen to the melody.”
“Another Pop triumph from LUC. Here the sweet vocals contain an attitude and a edge that makes for a fun contrast.
A hearty dose of attitude is rarely this fun.”
“Visc has channeled a catchy beat and melody straight from 1985 with this track. The vocals will conjure thoughts of THE Cars to purveyors of the classics and lyrically this track brings a punk edge, to go with the Indie Rock sound. ”
