"...a gloriously high-speed manifesto...The songs on Blowout have a classicist confidence, reaching all the way back to the Clash<https://mail.pressherepublicity.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=22402d5baf754ea497145a7a3074d0de&URL=https%3a%2f%2fmail.pressherepublicity.com%2fowa%2fredir.aspx%3fC%3d1942a7c313e14f559d7bc99273d01aad%26URL%3dhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.rollingstone.com%2fmusic%2fartists%2fthe-clash> and the Kinks<https://mail.pressherepublicity.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=22402d5baf754ea497145a7a3074d0de&URL=https%3a%2f%2fmail.pressherepublicity.com%2fowa%2fredir.aspx%3fC%3d1942a7c313e14f559d7bc99273d01aad%26URL%3dhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.rollingstone.com%2fmusic%2fartists%2fthe-kinks>. But it's the Glos' boyish exuberance that drives every second of the album home."
ROLLING STONE (4 Stars)
""Full of great hooks, anthemic energy and personality to spare, The Glos are able to etch out their own space thanks to these adventurous songs...The So the So Glos know where they came from, but have the confidence to continue to do things their own way...Loud, to the point, and charming as all hell."
[cid:0BC9CD3BC709450B9F395C562A3BA8FE at Shmanagement]
"The So So Glos [make] terribly mesmerizing, expertly assembled garage-rock. "Blowout" drips with quality."
[cid:5794CF6EC7DF47EFAAED95E533C9D992 at Shmanagement]
"Storming, gritty...a prickly take on salt-of-the-Earth punk rock."
[cid:84CDF0CE62E2437F8B1EB8C8B4844325 at Shmanagement]
"Blowout will strike some deep and satisfying chords for you...the album is straight-up adrenalized punk rock, and it's suffused with the all-out speed and sugary melody that draws kids to the genre in the first place"
[cid:292801B3883D4C4BBC6A1A928EC9CB65 at Shmanagement]
"The So So Glos happen to be in a valid position for effortless critiques of authenticity: hometown Good Ol' Boys unapologetic for who they are and how to manifest a community vision...Blowout is a worthwhile, insightful, and productive event-everyone's invited."
