Review's for the Album

"Undeniably catchy songs." The Horn Magazine

"Gravelly vocals plus synthesized beats from these indie-electro newcomers equals perfect music to dance to. Enjoy!" 5/5 Bliss Magazine

"Stoke's vocals are soulful and ethereal, the result....... heart warming" Big Cheese

"A gang of pop psychopaths driving a synth through the art-punk pop book. Like someone gave the Kaiser Chiefs a brain and a live socket." unpeeled.net

"DBA are consistently delivering hook after hook. Heck, this is a great debut album. DBA's song-writing has definitely brought them out on top" 8/10 The Music Magazine

"The band have the same acute sense of melody and craft which has made fellow Ayr natives Biffy Clyro into the world-beaters they are." Rocksound

"Occasionally an album comes along that is so ridden with raw emotion that it functions as a mouthpiece for everything you didn't ever realise that you felt.- Drive By Argument are that band." noize makes enemies.co.uk

"DbA are one of those bands that do eclectic in extremis and actually get away with it. Expect big things for this lot." BC Music

"A damn fine first album" 4/5 Vainzine
