"there
is big sound and much texture to be found in this festive,
musical gathering... These musicians are all accomplished and
not afraid to dig deep. The rhythm section, in particular, is
tight and unrelenting...Topped off with tasty horn charts,
choppy guitar work and eccentric vocals, this CD is a
fête."...  |

"Ska
hasn’t sounded this good since the Specials. The
complaining
horns, the spasticity of the
guitar and drum alliance, the lead singer engorged
in
the vocal chords of a young Elvis Costello (Attractions
style). I’ve never heard them before, but
I feel like I’ve known them forever. It brings a tear to my
ear. The bouncy music merely finger
paints over intelligent, well-constructed rhythm and poetry...
they’re amazing." ... |

"Now this is what I like to hear. A perfectly balanced
fusion of old school ska combined with enough of a fresh
approach to make you feel as if you’re not listening to the
same old songs over and over. Beat Soup
has truly managed to find that happy medium that makes people
like me want to get up and dance"

"...Expect
to hear a lot of Beat Soup tracks being played on radio
stations because this is one of the finest sounding CDs I've
heard in quite some time. Excellent." ... |

"Enthusiastic
purveyors of fine blissed-out Ska that skips and jumps irrepressibly between layers of crisp percussion and
bright horns."
-The
Boston Phoenix
"One of the most underrated bands in Boston...
Soulful vocals, a super-tight rhythm section, and sizzling horns. Every ska fan should
get this disk and check out their killer live show."

Noise
