Sounds Like: "With patient listening, the mess of influences Juvenescent Beat! combines on their A Man Could Get Shot for Asking Questions Like That EP morphs into a sensible and effective slab of able-bodied songwriting and raw, unfettered melodies." - punknews.org
"Not only do these guys call to mind RITES OF SPRING and EMBRACE on a surface-level musical comparison, but the vocal emotion, and lyrical sophistication live up to the mature, evocative billing. A Man Could Get Shot... is noisy, but well-structured, with a steady outflow of beats, and swirling guitars" - pastepunk.com
"...what’s important is that there’s nothing questionable, nothing filler, nothing to subtract from this impressive debut. Surely, this is a group who is going places." - absolutepunk.net
