Influences:
"Wonderfully addictive melodies that are amazingly catchy and cool...Brilliant clever pop from a unique perspective. The more we spin this one...the better it gets." ~ Babysue and LMNOP.com
"This bundle of squelchy, fuzz-dipped pop boasts winsome appeal in spades... Industrious work on the sonics—the free-form progression and the strange, though pop-savvy, textures—supply the cerebral attraction." ~ Barry Lenser (Pop Matters)
"Nowhere in this collection does Palmer aim for the lowest common denominator - his songs are smart and savory, absent of straight-to-the-chorus structures as he eschews hooks in favor of narrative development and adventurous movements within each of the tunes." ~ Jedd Beaudoin (Copper Press)
"A compelling collision of styles. Both intriguingly cryptic and intimately confessional." ~ Christopher Bahn (The Onion)
"Digitized neurotic pop bliss." ~ Nathan Dean (Pulse Magazine)
"One of the new tunes, "Parade Around," is actually the Socks' best track to date, a pretty, ambient-whirring pop gem." ~ Chris Riemenschneider (Star Tribune)
"Seemingly created for quarter-life crisis sufferers who have emerged from their medicated fog and realized they're all grown up." ~ Chris Gantz (City Pages)
"A captivating journey through rock’s neurotic outer edges. The group’s highly-digitized panic-pop gets under the skin instantly." ~ Rob Van Alstyne (Pulse Magazine)
"Seeing the band is a soothing experience, though I don’t mean to imply that they don’t rock." ~ Zosia Blue (Howwastheshow.com)
"The fantastically titled "Dr. Lawyer" is a deceptively simple pop song... until you realize the beats are as intricate as those on a Justin Timberlake record." ~ David Brusie (Rift Magazine)
