"On one hand, the album is full of bubblegummy ‘60s pop goodness and girl-group harmonies. The choruses are all catchy earworms, and the lyrics tend towards the lovelorn. On the other hand, all that ‘60s pop is balanced out by an equally good-sized dose of early punk rock, complete with shouted bridges, herky-jerky guitars, and vocals that have the odd audible sneer. If you can imagine Buzzcocks fronted by Ronnie Spector, you’re starting to get the idea." - The Torontoist, 2013
"We’re happy to debut this brand new summery tune from Toronto’s own indie quintet, the BB Guns. Their punked-up, 60s surf-rock sound is the kind of music that makes you want to go grab a zillion beers, head to the beach, and finish your pack of cigarettes before noon." - Noisey by VICE, 2013
