"It would be easy to write off Saint Ohio as a sort of Replacements loving, down-and-dirty rock group. but there's a bit more going on with this local four piece. Besides showing off the groups ability to craft killer song titles like 'Far More Handsome Than You' displays a swirling shoe-gazer fetish and knack for rhyhmic complexity, while 'Summer' with nods to the musical twists of Sunny Day Real Estate and the outbursts of early Cursive, harkens back to the days when the term 'emo' wasn't an insult. Slap together your favorite indie acts of the late '80s and early '90s and you get the idea: plenty of variation while still sounding suprisingly familiar. -Matt Whelihan, Cleveland Scene 01/28/09
