"Spell Toronto has achieved a kind of brutal honesty in Be More Careful, one that exemplifies the kind of music the world needs right now. Buy this record now, and sink into it."

- earBuzz.com

"San Diegoâ€™s own Indie Rockerâ€™s Spell Toronto know how to put out a solid catchy album. Their newest release, Be More Careful, is emotionally charged and will not disappoint any listeners."

- sandiegopunk.com

"The band's sound is crisp and sharp. They play with an intensity and seriousness that belies their self-styled image as fucked-up rockers."

- San Diego CityBeat Magazine

"Their illuminating songs stream forth expansive sounds that convey a pronounced musical talent. The band exhibits tremendous ability with effortlessness. On the bands independent releases they master a foundation that will no doubt elevate them into becoming a well known and respected band."
