My old bandmate from CONGRATULATIONS, Rani moved from Boston to Portland and started writing and singing amazing little pop-punk gems with help from a variety of PDX buds including Alyx from TAUREAN/T.V.U., Mac from ALIEN BOY/PERFUME V, and Mambo from BRAVE HANDS. There's a new EP on the way in 2019!

You know, this album, and particularly "Perfect World" give this sort of "your life is what you make it" kind of theme to it---all while being served with a very hip and catchy melody...personally I'm transitioning from #3 to #2 in terms of this song, and it only took 23 years! Aaron Jay Turkheimer

Opener absolutely rips. Falls into the ranks of tracks like “Dance” by ESG, “Eisbaer” by Grauzone, “Damaged Goods” by Gang of Four or like the album description says Kleenex. This is some really good stuff. Favorite song is the opener but dedicate “Blue” to my friend Blue who lost her life at 22, she would have loved this album. TheBloodofChrist

An album that snuck up on me and slapped me with goosebumps. It’s a perfect listen back to front.
Each of the band members contributions are inextricably linked to the final result. There’s no need to separate, weigh and appraise each individually.
These aren’t the sounds of critics or cynics.
These are the sounds of love letters, of incantations, of indictments of nightmare makers and of screaming into the void. How does one know a classic? By observing the levitating arm hairs. Classic. 🖤 blichvar
