About Me

"Army Navy follow in a direct line from The Zombies to Teenage Fanclub, with brief detours for The Posies, Redd Kross, My Bloody Valentine, Blur and the like, layering heavy, distorted guitars, pounding rhythms and oh-so-sad and sweet vocal melancholy into rock and roll bliss." -Othermusic

"Seriously, I could listen to songs like this from now until the end of time." -Idolator

"Catch a whiff of Army Navy's sweet jangle" -Pitchforkmedia

"Army Navy's music carries with it a twee earnestness that floats like a butterfly and stings like a first kiss. Former NW resident/Pinwheel co-frontman Justin Kennedy has moved on from his days sharing vocal duties with Ben Gibbard in that band, and the Los Angles sunshine warms the dreamy days traversed on Army Navy's record." -Seattle Stranger

"Theres sunshine in those guitars but their melancholia can only stem from souls rooted in a country where tinned meat is considered family food." -NME
