Praise for the album:
“The Wildes have hit the ground running, rolling, bouncing and twisting – releasing a debut album worthy of some serious praise†Inpress Magazine, Melbourne
"an eclectic, eccentric and exceptional collection of songs" Country Update Magazine, NSW
"There is so much to love about this record...one of the albums of the year" Media Search Magazine, Sydney
“Lachlan Bryan’s tremulous croon sweeps through the record, each track telling its own story…while the up-tempo tracks bear with them a spirit of optimism and are downright fun, the true treasures are the darker, heavier moments†Time-Off Magazine, Brisbane
"music to stroke your spine and shake your shoulders" Drum Media magazine, Sydney
"The chugging "Streets of My Hometown" carries the DNA of Steve Earle's Hometown Blues and the sweetly melancholic "Sue-Ellenâ€" sounds like a lost Waterboys cut. "If I've Done You Wrong" is a organ backed barroom weeper that basks in its unrepentant spirit and the wonderfully reflective "Loverman" is a rustic beauty. The bonus track Broken Blossoms is a piano and banjo bawler that I imagine could have been penned by that trash can troubadour Tom Waits. The Wildes cover a wide expanse of Americana dirt roads and wear their influences proudly on their sleeves, but their interpretation on these styles are uniquely their own." Twang Nation, USA
"This is brash, exciting and country at its best" Capital News, Tamworth
