'emotionally charged vocals convey a poetry brimming with sensitivity...exceptional production quality and fascinating intensity' - Boulimique de Musique
​
'...sounds that are both nostalgic and modern, and a poignant lyrical narrative...get ready for an introspective and inspiring musical journey' - ActuaNews.com
​
'...what sets Crooked Mouth aside from the well traveled ‘ear friendly, harder edged AOR sound’ is their willingness to experiment and develop the tracks beyond the generic mould. So it’s a testament to the band that they have never anchored their music to any particular sound or formula which gives them their individual identity... atomspheric guitar, tasteful fretless bass and catchy vocals are again the order of the day. And those infectious vocals continue to impress throughout...' - The Progressive Aspect
