.. VIMBY - Scissors For Lefty
SFL on The Daily Habit:
"...scruffy, dancey pop that's gleefully euphoric. Bryan Garza sings like an indie-rock James Brown, yelping, cooing, and slurring his lines in a boyishly seductive fashion..." - Rated: A, San Francisco Magazine
"Eager rock magpies come bearing bright, catchy gifts... huge hooks and playful pleasures win the day... So cheerily unpretentious, it's almost irresistible." - SPIN
"...plenty of undeniable, butt-shaking riffs...your feet will be shuffling to the irresistable, anthemic guitar hooks." - Paste
“…San Francisco newcomers Scissors for Lefty… threatened to steal the night from the '80s British duo [Erasure] with a frisky, fun 40-minute romp through its catchy indie album Underhanded Romance." – Miami Herald
"Scissors for Lefty...ambitious, sarcastic sophistopop.... quirky, promising and quite possibly awesome. - NME
"4/5 stars....combining the quirky pop flair of the Killers with the Anglophile indie purism of their underrated Californian labelmates the Tyde, the debut album from this San Francisco quartet shows real potential..." - The Times UK
"5/5 stars...they're stellar to the core. As happy on the dancefloor as in the headphones, SFL have a plethora of tunes that can take their place alongside Franz Ferdinand and We Are Scientists in the 'rock music you can swing to' category...There isn't a single bad song on the entire album, and every listen is an absolute joy. If there is any justice we'll see Scissors for Lefty emulating the mainstream puncturing success that We Are Scientists have achieved in recent times. This immediately makes an entry into the Top Ten albums of 2007." - Alternative Ulster UK
"...exuberant, fast-moving danceable rock/pop full of darting keyboards, Strokes-like guitar riffs, and disco rhythms..." - Billboard
"...infused dance-pop drips with wit and brims with energy — the sound of four guys having a good time." - LA Times "Buzz Band"
"SFL have an artistic edge, a lot of esoteric flavors, and a Brian-Ferry-meets-Jarvis-Cocker vibe...one of the most compelling, exciting, and commercially viable bands to emerge out of the rich SF music scene in years! " - Aaron Axelson, Live 105/Popscene
"Two pairs of brothers are bringing dancing back to the rock concert floor - thank God...Sexy, twitchy rock with herky-jerky rhythms, '80's-style synth melodies, and a very charismatic lead singer. Sort of a Bay Area version of the Strokes, only with less attitude and more fun." - SF Magazine
"...squelchy synths and snappy, disco-happy drums...infectious, soulful,and extremely tight." - SF Bay Guardian
"In their heyday, Pulp swaggered around the Brit-pop party with a bottle of bubbly in one hand and dancing shoes in the other. They were calculated cool with enough rock to help the club kids do the stiff shuffle all night. San Francisco's Scissors for Lefty follow a similar trajectory, with electronic beats, and whispered nightcaps. Stylish without sounding too self-aware, Scissors for Lefty are an interesting amalgam of calculated styles. - Seattle Stranger
"Thai food connoisseurs, cyclist enthusiasts, mistletoe fanatics :)..." - Scissors for Lefty
