Sounds Like: "The Milford-based band offers a lot of depth and subtlety to the songs on its 2006 LP. Stacey Scerbo offers up solid vocals." -Hippo Press, May 4-14, 2008
" The first thing that struck me when I listened to Beautiful Pearl was its rich full sound. Stacey Scerbo's vocals are gritty and work well with the rock-based songs. They have a Pat Benatar meets Ann Wilson (Heart) tone to them. Silvio Giarratana knows how to handle a guitar, from wailing hard rock to Texas blues riffs he makes it sing with joy with each new chord he hits."
"For a debut release, this band really has all of their cards in order and comes out of the starting gate at full speed. I'm sure that we'll be hearing a lot more from them now and well into the future."
-C.W. Ross, Senior Writer, Indie Music Stop
" 'Comfort Me' shows Midnight as a band that is tremendously influenced by the deep-down blues of a Kenny Wayne Shepherd and the progressive rock of a Rush.....Their "Beautiful Pearl" will find its way into my CD player for months to come".
-NeuFutur Magazine

"What I like most is the synergy of the band. Their performance has an emotion to it. Energy is always good, but to connect with a listener beyond just the good beats and vocals is a challenge for a lot of bands. Midnight Falling as a band does not have this issue at all."
-Urban Mainstream Magazine
" ..a powerful collection of songs exploring the light and dark sides of life."
-The Muses Muse
"I gotta say that their live show must be insane. Two of them, and one does all instruments? What's this guy got, fifty arms? Sh*t! It's got a heavy, blues sound to it. A "Bon Jovi Wanted Dead or Alive" sound to it. After this album though, they plan on all rhythmic, and rock edges. Look the f*ck out."
