    Always charmingly dour and deathlessly romantic. [Jul 2003, p.110]

  2. Entertainment Weekly

    The triple-guitar front splits the difference between New Zealand new-wave sparkle and classic Detroit hard rock, with Virat Shukla dropping some impressive precision-strike leads.
  3. PopMatters
    80
    Comprised of a dozen songs grounded in jangling guitars and edgy vocal stylings, All Around is a unique mix of pop-rock explorations and eclectic musical influences; a welcome respite from the formulaic approach many new bands opt to employ.
  5. Ink 19
    80
    All Around is an up-beat look at all that garage rock can be, reminding the listener why garage rock is supposed to be fun.
