"Best unsolicited CD to darken my door in a while... stripped-down-simple-two-guitar-bass-drums style of unadorned power and unfettered feeling... these boys are chasing something stranger than love and making the kind of inspiringly peculiar art that slicker talents steal from."

-- William Craig, Valley News

"...a sense of mission uncommon among new entries to the rock circuit."

-- Haverill Gazette

"The Johnson Boys take over where The Band left off, with 14 beer-soaked backwoods anthems that make you feel like you1re in the honky tonk bar where they were born. The Johnson Boys play rock and roll the way it should be played, with great songs, thrift-store instruments and more emotion than you can shake a stick at."

-- JS, The Source

"Their sound ranged from tears-in-yer-beers country ballads to an almost Clash-like intensity that had all who witnessed the event stomping their feet on the dance floor. The Johnson Boys' skill lies in their ability to write songs that move the soul. Harmonies intertwine but the music remains in your face, a testament to the raw emotion the Boys emit in their music."

-- Chris Nixon, Brattleboro Reformer
