The Unlovables

About Me

"The Unlovables are now pretty much the gold standard of pop-punk." -Billboard.com

“An awesome blast of female vocal pop-punk! From the folks who brought us The Ergs, this moves me the way The Muffs, Discount, and Fifth Hour Hero moved me on first listen. A breath of fresh air from all the veteran guy pop punk bands... One of the years best full-lengths for sure!” - Maximum Rock'n'Roll
“Quite simply, Heartsickle is the work of a band on top of its game. At a time when even some of the best pop-punk groups slavishly imitate other bands, The Unlovables sound more and more unprecedented with each release. " - Now Wave Zine
“Here’s a contender for my top 10 list for this year... hell, it’s a contender for number one on the list. Fantastic pop punk, with all the hooks and crunchy guitars that make for a perfect disc, with a sound much like bands on the Crackle label out of England.” - Shredding Paper
"Heartsickle's bubblegum hooks and ear-tickling harmonies comprise a non-stop collection of endearing, and heart-winningly catchy pop tunes that will nestle in your record collection right alongside dog-eared copies of My Brain Hurts and Revenge Is Sweet. The Unlovables are still the yardstick against which all other pop/punk is going to be judged; they've just raised the bar a little." – Jersey Beat
“There's something addictive about this album, I swear. Don't start listening to it unless you're perfectly immune to infectious girl-fronted pop punk rock.” -Razorcake Zine
