"Here I am still at work on a Friday night. I was trying to give a quick listen to one more CD before I headed out the door. But would Nicholas Tremulis' Napoleon let me give it a quick listen? Hell no. It just sucked me in, raised my eyebrows, made my toes tap and ask why the hell don't I know this guy?? Elaine C. Erb, Music Director/KGNU-Boulder, CO

"Recorded quickly and with minimal studio fuss, "Napoleon" is a typically fervent, sweaty offering that swirls together rock, soul, Chicago blues, Tom Waits-style vocal gravellyness and an overriding sense of immediacy -- plus a track called "Till You Know Who You Are" that was knocked out by Tremulis, Alejandro Escovedo and Ivan Neville in about 90 minutes." - Chicago Sun Times
