"This is what happens when sunshine-pop gets freaky, or when psych-rock gets a sense of humor. I have no idea what these songs are about, but listening to this big band of five gives me an incredible urge to eat funnel cake, twirl around in big plastic teacups, and water-color on the back of paper plates like there's no tomorrow."

"Everthus the Deadbeats came into this pop thing with more imagination and sheer ability than the majority of their fellow newbies; they craft songs like a jeweler polishes diamonds and they've made one of the most thoroughly enjoyable debut albums not just of the year, but really, ever. It's ever-listenable, ever-amazing and, well, everthus your musical life will be enhanced by supporting these five crazy kids. This is one rare occurrence you don't want to miss: the arrival of a luminous new pop entity in a world that needs them more than they probably know."

"Echoes of everyone from the Olivia Tremor Control's homemade tape loop anarchy to Tom Waits' clanking junkyard instrumentation to 10cc's quirky but slick prog pop can be found on these 15 varied tunes."

"Both Bannister and Sanders coat the music with guitars that can be gritty like the Beatles at their most intense on “Abbey Road” or atmospheric like the Electric Light Orchestra. John Kill and the Microscopic Lullaby is an album you want to listen to over and over. It’s an album full of mysteries you want to solve, an album full of pain you want to remedy, an album with enough sweetness to revel in.

Looking back at the dozen of shows I've seen over the past months, your performance at The House in DeKalb still sticks out as my favorite. It was a sweet little gem in the middle of our cornfield college town. Thank you!
