"They’ve got a fuzz-box, and they’re gonna use it, Mommy Can Wait brings bouncy female fronted punk rock with keys and drum machine from right here in Humboldt Park." -Reversible Eye
"Mommy Can Wait is like Arab on Radar Female vocals meets distorted pop punk guitars. It's like if Blatz and Teenage Jesus and the Jerks added some cheesy keyboards." -Kenna Gair
"Mommy Can Wait . . . sport a sound that h[e]arkens back to the West Coast punk of a couple of decades hence. The occasional hint of Wild Gift-era X pokes its head up from time to time, but I'm reminded of the more riotous tunes cranked out by the likes of East Bay ruffians Blatz and the Gr'ups. The guitars growl and buzz like a stripped-rotor garbage disposal, there's some additional keyboard work to give it all some giddy and dizzying bounce, and they're crafty with switching up the styles and tempos within the span of a two-plus minute song. . . . fun stuff!" -Transmission, Gaper's Block's music site
Record Label: some brat must've peeled it off...
