"From the first notes, David Dhoop's 5-track EP imparts a Lennon-esque quality, in the best sense. "Some people's love is the hurtin' kind," he sings in the catchy refrain of the opening track. The pop savvy is more Julian than John; the crispy guitars and crackling organs are almost futuristic and the metallic ring of horns takes the song to a whole new level. This is not straightforward rock: Indeed, Dhoop's very style suggests that he's mastered both the writing and the playing parts of music and is now out to construct songs that hang in the balance between familiar and wildly experimental."  Alli Marshall, Mountain Xpress
