Album Review from 30 Music
The Purple Cow Story should easily garnish more fans as well as record label attention with this strong debut. The band plays and soars together like a well made jet fighter. The guitar licks are all poignant and striking, the drums are fantastic, making the lack of a bass an afterthought. The intricacy in their writing and orchestration as well as their creativity make this band stand out on their own. The modern sounds of TPCS should appeal to anyone who "gets" what the aforementioned bands were all about; consequently you should definitely go and get this.

Album Review from Organ Magazine Online
... Fast, scuzzy, creative, urgent, a vibrant alternative new wave bite and a band who for once don’t want to be the Gang of Four. Seems they play every single night of their lives and people were demanding a recording, seems they’ve taken a little time to deliver the goods, seems they’ve been doing it all themselves – you wouldn’t know it, certainly doesn’t sound low budget, sounds just right, Albini would be proud of ‘em. He’d like the attitude, the raw (yet very clear and professional) sound, and the bits that kind of taste like the Cure and the naked fist fights in redneck bars and, ah well he’d just like it. Proper stuff, like Big Back or Jesus Lizard or Sonic Youth and with that much needed bit of identity that’s all the Purple Cow’s own – fine fine earfood, well worth your time and effort.
