Red Eye/Metro Mix - Chicago Tribune
"In a genre that often requires more gimmick than substance, Roundeye stands apart.
The Punk rock group caters to a fan base they feel has been neglected by headlining groups, music fans who love punk but could do without eyeliner and sappy songs of high school romances, May, 2008"
New Juke.com: “Rock driven punk tunes for the worthyâ€
Music Connection Magazine: "Voted Roundeye one of the the top 100 hot and unsigned bands in the United States, December 2007"
New City: “This Chicago Based Trio is still pretty rough around the edges, however the still spew a punk rock attitude in a frightnegly relaxed manner"
Punk Planet: “Roundeye’s brand of punk recalls the kind of stuff you heard on Lookout in the 90’sâ€
Illinois Entertainer: “Chock full of thrashy punk guitars and kicking rhythms, Roundeye’s self titled debut displays their energized Brand of Rock. Brettly’s vocal style and delivery definitely help Roundeye stand out from the punk pack.â€
All Ages Zine: Chicago’s Roundeye has been floating around the Chicago scene for a bit and have out a 5 song ep, simply called Roundeye. Roundeye takes a couple of old school styles and combines them to create a raw, gritty yet somehow non-threatening brand of punk rock. If you are into real punk influenced music, you may want to check this out.
Go and Do Michigan: “with their colorful style, live, Roundeye is something to see.
Chicago Sun Times - May, 2007: "Get Angsty with super talented punk rockers Roundeye every Monday in May at the Red Line Tap"
