“They’ve got a gripping, Aerosmith-emulating energy onstage, and the riffs fly at you like machetes. Presence like that isn’t easy to bottle, though engineer Brian Brown did a solid job of doing just that on their sophomore release.”
- Hannah Levin, Seattle Weekly

"Shim slayed the main stage crowd. These guys were unabashed heshers, long-haired, mutton-chopped, crude, and oversexed. It was guitar-driven classic rock, not the a $200-a-ticket geriatric cashing-in kind, but in the 'we just wanna party with you' guitartastic kind."
- Jonathan Zwickel, Seattle Times

"Spirited guitar-driven rock 'n' roll with an emphasis on bluesy, stand-alone riffs, catchy hooks, ever-present, radio-ready choruses and the occasional cowbell. Songs with such lyrics as 'Love me like an animal/ Purring in the cool moonlight/ Want me like a cannibal/ Cause it's feeling like a full-moon night' just ache to be shouted in the car, shower, wherever people act as if they're the star of their own personal concerts. Shim makes it easy to rock out."
- Shawn Telford, Seattle Post-Intelligencer

"Blinding lights, smoke machines, merciless swagger and pure unadulterated rock 'n' roll. It doesn't get any better than that. Seattle's own red-blooded, riff heavy arena-rock band SHIM pounds out classic-rock tinged anthems replete with blistering metal solos, thundering rythyms and call and response choruses."
- Sound Magazine

"Immediate and clever, they pound out riffy rock just this side of the metal divide, while whip-smart storytelling and odes to not climbing corporate ladders make up the lyrics."
- The Inlander

"...so raw and full of energy that it may get your blood pumping. It also will get your feet stomping and your musical hunger fed. In the Veins is full of riff-driven rock music that will grow on you like a fungus, and if enough people hear about these guys, the sky is certainly the limit."
- Bullz-eye.com

“A heavyweight rock outfit that’s poetic and pure. ‘Satisfied’ is the sound of complicated people enjoying simple things. It’s vibe is 12:45 bar time, knee-deep in High Life, and the lyrics are nothing short of revelatory. It’s an anthem that was waiting to be written.”
- The Inlander

“...party rock with an atomic brain…You just never know where the body of one of these songs is going to throw a punch or a kick next.”
- ThreeImaginaryGirls.com

"Anthem rock that's cooler than anthem rock, which'll sway those dickheads who think they're too cool for anthem rock."
- Mansplat

“...a cut above… a welcome respite from your average Seattle band.”
- Seattlest.com

"...they rock like some sort of mad, out-of-control rocking machine that was set on high and left outside in the rain."
- Seattle-powerpop.blogspot.com
