"In pre-anesthesia times when Doctors performed brain surgery, patients threw back whisky and bit down on leather to cope with the pain. Conscious, with their skulls opened, they encountered so much pain that they entered a trance like state of suspended hallucinatory shock where all was beautiful, no pain. This is what happens when you listen to the Lights." Trent Moorman, the Stranger

"The Lights' sound has grown from the starker efforts of the past to a lusher and more detailed document that embellishes the band's angular, aggressive sound with sharper pop sensibilities." Hannah Levin, Seattle Weekly
"The songs are a uniformly strong bunch, driven by galloping, at times martial rhythms and clattering, angular guitar lines flecked with occasional shades of surf and spaghetti western." Don Yates, KEXP

"The coolest thing about the Lights is how they are able to take their UK post punk influences, travel up to the mountains to some isolated shack and boil them down in a still and come up with something that sounds like wild mountain men doing angular punk rock." the Finest Kiss

"I get the feeling that if a slipshod, wild-eyed posse of frontiersmen devised a sound rooted in late 70s punk and its early 80s aftermath, it might sound something like this. Loud, lonely, dirty and determined." Seattle Subsonic
