”You'd be hard-pressed to find a purer, no-bullshit, serious-as-a-heart-attack rock record released this year, 8.2/10” –Pitchfork
“Rides a pug-ugly joy-punk riff into almost krautrock oblivion -- complete with gorgeous voice cracks and face-mooshing distortion” –Village Voice
”Fantastic LP” –Brooklyn Vegan
”A record that leaves me spinning after every spin” –Dusted Magazine
”An eight-course feast curated and prepared by Black Flag, Guy Picciotto, Sleep and Queens Of The Stoneage but it leaves a singular aftertaste that is all its own, 4/5” –Consequence of Sound
”Leave Home is a surprise favorite of 2011” –Stereogum
