"... eruditely poetic, hard-hitting, & induces sing-a-longs. It's refreshing to hear a singer belt out lines of poetry like he means it." - CURRENT "Rave reviews are streaming in for this Detroit quartet's smash-up of shiny power pop and grimy post-punk. A band to keep your ears on." - Detroit Free Press "My fingers are crossed that LISBOA somehow sparks off a trend of smart, well-written, catchy, dirty guitar-pop in the Detroit music scene. I simply cannot find enough good things to say about this CD. Don't let this be the best release you haven't heard this year - recommended, and then some." - Delusions of Adequacy "Simply put, Lisboa is a band with a keen sensibility for laying down catchy pop hooks in a heavier context. These guys have hella potential, so get this bad boy before the majors re-release it." - Real Detroit Weekly "... I'll be damned if listening to Lisboa isn't my idea of fun. ... their record just drips with fun, which is pretty much the first and last thing that I look for in a great punk rock record. ... way, way above par. I encourage you to check this record out because it's bound to blow a lot of stuff right off of your stereo." - Deep Fry Bonanza "Gutteral orchestral post-punk rock & roll. Calling an ex-abandoned Michigan warehouse home and studio, Lisboa mix down some appropriately abrasive boozy rock." - GetUnderground.com "Given their collective garage-punk-brassy-tour-heavy background, Lisboa had the ingredients for . . . wait, did I say brassy? How did that fit in? Easy. Take a listen ... it will slip in nicely next to the Posies, the Replacements, and anything else with a sweet hook." - Action Man Magazine
