And getting some sweet pre release reviews...

Nashville Scene: "We’ve not seen anything quite like it in some time, maybe ever. Pretty damn phenomenal."

Time Out New York: "Turbo Fruits’ effortlessly tuneful swagger reminds you in a flash that rock & roll is an either-you’ve got-it-or-you-don’t endeavor. This Nashville trio includes the guitarist and drummer from teen-punk sensations Be Your Own Pet but comes across as even more fun and raucous."

Wonkavision: “Jonas Stein may be single handedly reviving the true spirit of punk rock. The Be Your Own Pet guitarist takes over on vox for his spin-off band Turbo Fruits. It’s a frantic mess of Ramones punk rock with the playfulness of a kindergartner’s fingerpainted portraits. It’s disheveled, it’s chaos, but somehow it stays within its bounds. Turbo Fruits is a perfrect summer blitz for the young, messy and fast.”

Delusions of Adequacy: "Influenced by the 70’s punk scene, Turbo Fruits combines cheekily defiant lyrics and a spunky attitude to make irresistibly cool punk rock with a sense of humor."

XLR8R: "This Be Your Own Pet offshoot makes garage-rock the way it was meant–loose and bluesy, filled with lyrics about smoking dope, and by dudes under the age of 21. Just in time for summer, the sweaty foot stomping has begun."

URB’s Next 1000: "Call them the cowboys of indie rock: the Turbo Fruits have that country swagger with that indie soul."

Music For Robots: "Admittedly more indie than modern rock, they've got that loud pop thing going on. I love it…It's really quite good, full of everything you want a rock record to be."

Nashville Scene: "Turbo Fruits mine the punk rock spirit of the late ‘70s for their sound, a spastic mix of spunky MC5 giddy-up and glammy, feel-good guitar mayhem. Although the scenes they invoke were long dead before any of Turbo Fruits were even born, their frantic interpretations are irrepressibly fun, like a T. Rex record skipping. It’s hard to fathom a band with so much dope-smoking innuendo in their lexicon being as busy as they are, much less as fierce and, hell, lively as they sound on their recordings."

I'm in total agreement with ya! There's waaaaaaaaay too much of this shallow blah. Save it for the majors. Sum 41 fans buy this disc!

people are so fucking stupid.

I know that was directed at me. Again, I did not say you should listen to Awesome Color because they're nice folks, I said you shouldn't wish horrible deaths on them because they are nice folks.

And, yeah, people are so fucking stupid, aren't they?
