Press

"a sinewy rap-rock concoction stirred by distinctive, overlapping voices" - Patrick Foster, Washington Post, May 2011

"'Make Some Noise' is a grimey slice of funk that's topped with a sea of tripped-out rhymes-—it'd be shocking if you don't groove to it. The song showcases their stellar musicianship too, which isn't always as noted as their vocal skills." - Eddie Fleisher, Alt Press, May 2011
