         "[LATCHKEY PUNK] Punk's influence on young bands has had highs and lows, particularly when it was treated as a Top 40 commodity in the wake of Blink 182's 'pop punk' garbage and the ensuing rush of preppies learning power chords. But the high school-age bands on this bill- particularly Monster Size Monsters- prove that the kids are, indeed, 'alright.' Each group of young whippersnappers has the angst and feel of old-school screaming punk down pat, proving that wherever there are kids, hormones and angst, punk will always thrive."

"MSM LIVE @ VD 3.22.2007
     When I walked into Voodoo Doughnuts, there was NO FUCKING ROOM. The band was perched up on a tiny stage that must have been 10' X 6', if that!
     Packed with fans, (well as packed as VD can get with it's whole 100 square foot of floorspace) I pitied the unknowing donut fiends who happened to wander in for their late-night fix, though they were in for a treat as the band was rocking the fuck out full throttle despite their cramped quarters.

     All things said, it was a great show and I am looking foreward to playing a show with the Monsters as soon as possible!"
