Here's what some folks have said after listening to our record Buckle in the Bible Belt -

"It’s the best rock record I’ve heard this year. There’s nothing on the White Stripes’ recent Icky Thump as convincingly roots-rockin’ as “Caney Mountain,”...Power-pop hook kings the New Pornographers couldn’t manage a track as infectious as Ha Ha Tonka’s “Falling In” on their latest, Challengers—and they’ve got Neko Case! Trust me, folks, this is really strong stuff." Josh Timmerman - PopMatters.com

"HHT deftly mixes sweet harmonies and raw, spewing rock and roll. Miss this record at your own risk." John Holcomb - Amplifier

"A precocious, stammering rock record that bridges sweet-water gospel folk with sweltering Southern rock." CMJ Essentials

"It's practically hopeless for me to try and compare this album or band to someone else. Everyone today is trying to be new and different, so as to have an edge on the competition. Well, Ha Ha Tonka has done it." Rachel Frederickson - Hybrid Music

"Blasting from our offices:rich with personal stories and people eager to pound the floorboards to crunchy, sun-soaked roots rock." SPIN Magazine

“…a confident set of rootsy indie-rock combining a variety of well-crafted songs with excellent harmonies. At times the band’s sound recalls Kings of Leon, but other influences poke through, from backwoods gospel to the Replacements." Don Yates - KEXP Seattle
