“One of the year’s most addictive records”— Grayson Currin, The Independent Weekly

“The razor-sharp power-pop of the late, great Exploding Hearts is clearly an influence on Last Year’s Men as the band zips through songs about teenage problems. But even when singer Ben Carr seems down, there’s an optimism and energy that helps separate his band from its peers.” — David Malitz, The Washington Post’s Click Track Blog
