"If we lived in a fair and beautiful world, ELP would play at every dance club and every house party (and everyone's lives would be much better)."
- Jer, Three Imaginary Girls (Seattle)
"Overall, Straight Talk on Raising Kids is an infectious record - from the power-soaked 'Machine' to the directive 'Move Right, Move Left,' Electric Laser People definitely know how to rock."
- C.D. Di Guardia, Northeast Performer Magazine
"Electric Laser People take on old-school rap style in a whimsical manner by draping absurd lyrics over minimal electronic sound effects and guitar crunches, like a sonic merging of Ratatat and Licensed to Ill."
- All Music Guide / Billboard.com
"1980s inspired dance rock with a good beat and hooks a crowd can sing too."
- Boston Globe
"... innovative lyrics that look into the lives of teenagers."
- BostonNOW
"... fun electronic jams that punctuate each note with a finesse bands with millions of dollars in a budget aim for."
- smother.net
"Holy crap! People love your music... Everytime I play it I get calls. Not angry calls either."
- Andy Kline, KXLL Excellent Radio 100.7 Program Director, Juneau AK
"Having seen Electric Laser People’s live show, I can personally testify that this band has got it all. If you want to impress your hipster friends, beat them to the punch, pick this album up and get your own party started."
- What's Up Magazine
"Electric Laser People is a party band to say the least. Their sound blends the hip hop stylings of The Beastie Boys with the production and song writing abilities of The Flaming Lips and The Police."
- The Noise

DOWNLOAD the album from iTunes
