"...an excellently overstuffed garage-psych sound..." - Pitchfork
"'Come Home' references garage rock and psychedelic influences, but it's as catchy as it gets." - KCRW
"[CHAPPO's] music is fearless, innovative and downright fun, infusing classic indie pop with complete chaos, achieving their goal of making the Chappo experience one meant to be out of this world." - The Deli

"[Live, CHAPPO's lead singer] Alex Chappo's electrifying vocals were nothing short of magnetic!" - The Wild Honey Pie

Today, Brooklyn's four-piece CHAPPO<http://chappomusic.com/> releases a three-song teaser on iTunes HERE<http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/moonwater-single/id505237359>, which features the band's latest psychedelic-pop tracks "Come Home," "What Are You Kids On?," and "5-0."
