Praise for Education, Education, Education & War
“Full of frothingly pissed-off working-class British rock, with shades of glam, pub rock, the Jam's lefty-mod broadsides and Oasis at their most soccerhooligan-y.” – David Fricke, Rolling Stone

“Education, Education, Education & War offers those in the market for good rock music something like optimism; we should care because a real rock band might make it onto the charts in this otherwise One-Directionless One-Republic of Imagined Dragons.” – Forbes

“Its DNA is spliced from the likes of Futureheads, Art Brut, and Pulp, and it charges forward with spittle-lipped anger and propulsion, ultimately sounding like it could inspire a mosh pit at any point from the turn of the millennium until now.” – Consequence of Sound

“a raging success”-Alternative Press
