About Me


Reviews for The Pefectionist Blacklist:
"This is truly a great record, one that manages to tie in all of the biggest and best sounds of this new century's exciting musical spectrum without coming off as cliché, boring, or derivative."-Decoymusic.com
"The album has amazing lasting power--not only that, but it's so enticing to the ears, you will play again and again, and not get bored. It's that good, that intense."-Musicemissions.com
"It’ll take at least one month for listeners to fully unravel the songs. With long, drum-centric instrumental passages akin to Dredg, vocalist Jason Dodge alternates between whispers and screams. They go from Futureheads-like breathlessness on “Oil and Water” to Bronx-like fury on “Stalker” to soft falsetto pop on “Death of an Oarfish” that tinkle along like Sea & Cake. It’s a successful execution of the quiet-loud dynamic."-SDcitybeat.com
"Rising out of Fullerton, California, the alternative quintet is certainly unique. Their songs all have impressive moments, little climaxes and melodies where the guitars swell and the cymbals crash and a chill goes down the listeners spine."-Comfortcomes.com
"The albums mysterious rock concoction makes forty minutes seem over just as soon as they have begun. It requires listen, after listen, after listen. It potentially becomes one of those albums you could like without even realizing it which could very well be the best kind."-Cdreviews.com
"Withdrawal has managed to create something which is both unique in sound yet familiar in its overall scope and in doing so, they should achieve a good level of recognition which they more than deserve."-Independentclauses.com
