"...joyous, irresistible garage punk with sunshine choruses..."-- The
Guardian
"Each of their songs was a barrage of distorted guitar noise and they obviously thought they were the coolest 11-year-olds on the planet. They quite possibly are."--The Telegraph
"Marvelous stuff"-- Artrocker

"this
2:43 minute slice of detached cool comes across like Suicide crashing
a Shaggs rehearsal. How can you resist? "You say yes, I say
no. You say stop, I say go. You say up, I say down. You say smile,
I say frown. Stickin' it to The Man, stickin' it cos I can, stickin
it to The Man, every day." Genius.-- "--David
Bowie
"
lo-fi,
high-intensity fun, with life and urgency and sloganeering and glorious
edgy dumbness. It evokes images of gritty, black and white footage
of all-but-riots of performances in low ceilinged clubs of dubious
legality, and should be checked out by anyone and everyone with
a weakness for precocious, attitudinal punk thrills."-- Drowned

"...remarkable..."-- Newsweek
Magazine
"...cuter and more
uplifting than a barbershop quartet of kittens humming Beach Boys
songs...frankly genius..." --Bizarre
"...Big Noise has an undeniable DIY charm
to it."-- Drowned

"Clap Your Hands Say Yeah may have been
the headliners, but pint-sized punks Tiny Masters of Today stole
the show. With hair disheveled beyond their years, they vented pre-teen
angst through their three-chord rants, bringing Fred Schneider of
the B-52s and Kimya Dawson onstage as guests."-- Spin.com
