Here are some reviews we've gotten:

"Dark lyrics paired up with punchy, upbeat melodies, gang vocals and a Moog stand out against the Boston music scene like a flower blooming in a lake of shit".
- Weekly Dig (live review)

"Almost trademarking the genre 'synth-core', this Boston, USA band have come up with a cracker - the five track 'Brighter Sides' EP is a real gem. Produced by Hot Rod Circuit's Mike Poorman, the band layer plenty of melodic synths alongside an early Weezer/The Rentals pop sound. 'Staying In's Alright' is an absolute blinder of a pop song".
- Punktastic.com

"For a band that's only been together for two years, The Appreciation Post sound far more rounded than their years together."
- Kudos Magazine (UK)

"A short and sweet five song EP chock full of keyboard-assisted pop/rock. Reminds me of (newer) PIEBALD and ULTIMATE FAKEBOOK, with charming, syrupy lyrics winning out. I could see this band heading on to big things"
- Pastepunk.com

"Their sound is well put together, accomplishing the not so easy task of tying together strong guitars, synths, and vocals into a cohesive and very appealing total effect".
-The Recorder, CT

"T.A.P. features an all-star line-up of Boston musicians - solid songwriting going on here".
- Chris Rucker (WBCN-FM & former WFNX-FM Music Director)

"a unique guitar-driven sound. The chord changes were spontaneous and the tight arrangement of melodic tunes made this worth arriving early for".
- Northeast Performer Magazine (live review)

"Showing off the band’s impeccable sense of humor, “I’m No Sure Thing” packs lemonade-stand sabotage, a sudsy all-dude car wash session and one giant stuffed flamingo into three minutes of orchestrated hilarity."
- Boston Herald (Music Video Review)
