Giant Robot- September 2004
West of Eden - “Summer’s practically over, but this CD will bring back the beach vibe. The photo of a lounging bikini girl on the beach looks like it should be on a sweaty and saucy soca record. But it’s really a sunny, smiley pop compilation of California bands. The Muffs grind out a leisurely paced pop gem, and Anna Waronker of That Dog contributes a catchy cut that is campfire ready. ¡Carlos! is more rocking with some guitar riffs and lyrics about lying strippers. Clocking in at a full hour, there’s also country, acoustic and more”
