Current mood:  thirsty
I got tired of seeing all these reviews right on our front page. It seemed a little like gloating or something. I figured I would tuck them away in their own special section. So now, this way, we're still gloating, but in a more subtle way.

"Kill Conrad combines earnest East Coast Hardcore with melodic crusty pop"
- MaximumRockNRoll

"...[a] blast of bliss. The songs are all played with a passionate ferocity, and they remind me of a more aggressive, grittier Explosion....I've been noticing myself subconsciously pumping my fist in my living room as I'm spinning this.... Great stuff." - The Noise (32SFANIP)

"This quick 7", Work & Class, bustles with melodic punk/hardcore (emphasis on the punk) that reminds me a bit of the older, unrefined and raw-produced No Trigger (fellow Massheads) stuff, though way less indebted to Strike Anywhere." - Punknews.org (W&C/DBDS)

"Hailing from Boston, it makes sense that Kill Conrad are reminiscent of later ‘80s East Coast punk, a little hardcore crust with the melody; it’s got the beat, got the tight energy that keeps you listening. Just recreating that sound without the trying too hard feeling is admirable." - Razorcake (W&C/DBDS)
"Short and sweet, this is five songs of quick paced melodic punk...This is a solid little EP that hints at some potential greatness if these guys stick to it."Razorcake (32SFANIP)

"Fast happy punk your thing? Then get this CD." - Mass Movement Magazine (32 SFANIP)

"I'll tell you one thing, 32 Short Films About Nothing in Particular is a fun melodic punk rock album that you can't help yourself from dancing in your chair." - ScenePointBlank (32SFANIP)

"Their music is melodic, but not soft. Fast, but controlled. It’s a synthesis of all the best bits of everything that falls under the wide umbrella of punk from the past thirty or so years....As long as there’s a place with a roof and an electrical outlet, there will be punk shows. And Kill Conrad will probably be on the bill." - INsite Magazine

"This band definitely has potential to get up there with the likes of their contemporaries in this sub-genre if they continue at this rate, and I'm curious to hear more from them in the future." - No Division Music

"Melodic punk, with balls.... [Kill Conrad] played an amazing set and the crowd was fucking nuts!...I loved their set and I'll definitely buy their EP when it comes out in the spring" - Drink Fight and Fuck (live review)

"Kill Conrad does what so many other bands wish they could do: They make Boston Punk sound fresh again." - Newbury Comics

"I was taking a shit in the basement while Kill Conrad was practicing.  They're pretty catchy, I guess." - Fuckelshit

"Shouldn't they be singing 'Set ME Free?'" - Matt Tahaney, Q-Division
