Ache (#2) said it all!!! The ones I love are spread so far apart, on the map and in my heart. Alien Boy makes music that makes me feel like there’s no point in writing songs because someone already said everything I wanted to say. They rock and you should listen to them. Daisy Nichols

Up there with Joe's best -- it feels like it pulls from every record he's done before while still being completely distinct from any Cymbals record in the way it combines the psychedelia and accessibility with some of the lushest, most ornately arranged music I've heard. Plus the guitars still rock, the solos fucking slap, and the ballads somehow slap just as hard. The narrative based lyrics also hit a sweet spot in Joe's lyricism -- direct but inventive, descriptive and endlessly compelling. Emmanuel Castillo
