--------------------------------------------

"Their latest EP, Repetition, stirs in a fine 20 minutes and is a fitting disc to spin for a pre-party. Hell - a party and after-party too."

--West Coast Performer Jan '08

"Tempo No Tempo's Repetition EP starts off strong with its title track, which has a catchy guitar riff and steady piano pounding that'll get the people moving to the dance floor. Then my favorite track on the EP, "Irregular Heartbeats," kicks off, with a bassline that turns in and out and drives the song. The drums and percussion have some maniacal hi-hat shuffling going on in this quick-paced song, too. The singing is frantic, and the singer even lets out a few Guy Picciotto-type yelps with the line: "Makes me wonder if there is a heart beating at all..." Then it's back to that bassline turning over and that hi-hat working -- the dance floor will be at fever pitch."

--Space City Rock 12/7/07

"The lead single “Repetition,” shows a maturer approach to a tired dance-punk genre (thank God), and the album moves toward a more experimental/psychedelic territory. We anticipate an even better 2008.."

--The Owl Magazine 11/9/2007

"If too many of the dance rock bands obsess in creating slick, shiny songs, Tempo No Tempo separates itself with an ability to embrace noisier and darker sounds while keeping things driving and melodic. It’s a skill that reminds me of Washington, D.C.‘s now-defunct Q and Not U, a band that similarly mixed synths and guitars and threw in enough musical and lyrical curveballs to make you think while you were dancing."

--Ajisignal 11/12/07

"...blended from the heavily farmed growing regions of Thunderbirds are Now!, Gang of Four, and Q and Not U. Yeah, it's dance-post-punk all over again, but you know you still crave it."

--Pitchfork Media 1/29/07
