"Ooh, it's so shiny and colourful. American indie rock/electro kids Redflecks toured the country from March to April. And their sound reminds me alot of Canadian dance-punks "You say party! We say die!". Throw in some karen o, some strokes, some blondie, vocalist amy's own sultry flair, some deep bass lines, a bag full of smarties, and you've got an idea. Shiny happy people!"

- YL of Blunt Magazine

"...Fatal Devotion" sounds like a female-fronted Interpol, but replaces that band's flatlined delivery with Amy's elastic Karen-O vocals and a surprisingly limber arrangement. Electronic elements — robotic handclaps and overdriven drum machines — are kept to a kitsch-less minimum, and the band's slow-burning melodies twist and turn in spooky and strangely catchy ways."

- The Rage July 2008 by Dave Paulson

“Hey Da Da Da Da” is a real party track with Blondie-esque vocals and swirling, fuzzy guitars over dance-ready beats.”

- CMJ Sept 3rd 2007 New Music Report Spotlight

Currently out: "The Shiny Part" [2008].
