"The Presidents of the United States of America's music, as if it were sending out millions of microwave rays, turns ice into puddles of water at the world's feet." - Daytrotter.com
"The Presidents of the United States of America scratch that itch that you can't reach. They do and say all those things that you'd like to, but fear what people might think of you. They are your inner-child, but stinking drunk on a half-case of cheap beer. And, with the youthful appeal of the Dead Milkmen, the off-kilter storytelling and slashing chops of theViolent Femmes, and a razor-sharp sense of irony, they are utterly undeniable." - Adem Tepedelen
"This isn't your expected so-called 'novelty' band. PUSA are the real deal, and they expect you to take them seriously. Well, as seriously as you can, you mixed-up sonofab**ch." - Absolutepunk.net
