Mike
Kaufmann of Asthmatic Kitty writes that "American
League/National League is my favorite
epic double album featuring 1 song for each of Major League Baseball's
30 teams."
“What you need to know is that they
make loose indie rock with discernible Pixies, Beck, and They Might
Be Giants influences. The album traverses multiple genres, even
a successful send-up on '90s hip-hop. The double record, American
League/National League,is really quite an effort, way too smart
and full of catchy stuff, at turns gratifyingly or frustratingly
lo-fi.”
—Jay Breitling, World of Sound, contributing editor
“The impressive release runs the gamut
of musical stylings, but ultimately skews toward the halcyon days
of lo-fi indie rock. No runs, all hits, no errors.”
–Randy Kim, hifiny & joonr
