PUNK PLANET
"This is such a great CD! I get the same feeling
from these guys that I got when I first heard early
Hot Water Music and Embrace, who both apparently influenced
these guys. Highly recommended for fans of post-hardcore
with lots of feeling."
MAXIMUM ROCK 'N ROLL
"These guys come on Fugazi like with vocals and
dense intros. Then it gets more Jawbreaker kick-in-the-fuzz.
But they somehow still sound kinda pop punk. Maybe
brooding pop punk with attittude. Not nearly on the
Fugazi/Jawbreaker level and ultimately a pop punk
disc, this does work for me with its interesting blend."
SKRATCH MAGAZINE
"...a great mix of the hardcore roots and a more
rock-based, melodic quality."
SMOTHER MAGAZINE (Editor's
Pick)
"The Faithfull's vocal delivery is akin to Perry
Farrell in his better days while the sound is a mix
between modern rock and post-hardcore. They're similar
to a Quicksand but with an updated approach. It's
songs like "Voiceless" and "Latin Girl"
that will appeal to both young kids and the twenty-somethings
alike. The guitar riffs are amazing and are smoldering
hooks that will have any with a pair of working ears
grooving instantly. Reason Y Records has a winner
on its hands. Watch out CMJ,
The Faithfull are coming to conquer your charts."
30MUSIC.COM
"Following closely in the footsteps of the post-hardcore
precession, the Faithfull have strong songwriting
skills and a tight, enjoyable sound."
NEUFUTUR MAGAZINE
"I was imagining a sullen, quiet, boring indie
rock band, and I was given an up-tempo, post-hardcore
verging on emo-rock band. Aside from my birthday and
yule gifts, I would have to say that this was one
of the best surprises I've gotten in the last few
years. Mixing the best elements of Boys Night Out,
The Good Life, Thousand Foot Krutch, Brand New, and
all those other bands with the same general sound,
The Faithfull mix a high sense of harmony and beautiful
vocals with a hard, punky edged sound."
PUNK-N-JUNK.COM
"Throw together the rough vocals and interesting
melodies of today's indie rock giants and the instrumental
aspects of pre-MTV-explosion emo acts such as the
Get Up Kids and you'll have something that might almost
resemble The Faithfull's album Our
Own Heroes."
