Critical Response by Critical Response
The debut album from NorCal garage punks Critical Response!
From Razorcake Issue 136
"CRITICAL RESPONSE: Self-titled: LP
Santa Cruz beach punk with strong vocals and plenty of snap and buzz. Sounds like the Avengers or The Gits at times, not straying too far from the classic West Coast vibes. Musicianship is top notch, with frenzied blues guitar from some folks who have been around the block. Punk with a big P, which is not reinventing any wheels, but is pretty damn fun. – Tim Brooks (Screwball)"
"Punk at its best! Critical Response’s eponymous first album, delivers a speeding mass of sound! Its stripped down, bare, high stakes, in your face lyrics and searing vocals flying over bass, guitar, and drums played with tsunami force, make Critical Response a band to be reckoned with!" ~ Marc Zegans, author of “P(un)k Poets Too Fucked to Drink,” and other poems.
"[An] absolutely furiously beautiful piece of work".- Mick Griffin, host of the "Queens of Noize" radio show in Australia.
