"NMA's version of Junior Kimbrough's "Meet Me in the City" here almost sounds like power pop, but filtered through a rustic moonshine filter. Every track here is like that, roaring into the 21st century sounding big, urgent, and huge, but so grounded in the local folk-blues tradition that each track seems to carry imprinted DNA that says boogie all over it. World boogie is coming? It's here, and these guys boogie like the world has no choice but to surrender to the fact".

"This recording at once the band's most traditional and most progressive. A postmodern mashup that culls from hill country blues, fife and drum music, hip hop, psychedelic blues rock, funk, gospel, house music, rock 'n' roll, southern rock, and british blues, as well as ambient sounds, it remains at it's very core a butt-kicking, stomping, downhome blues and boogie jam ... A game-changer that raises the bar for creativity and contemporary blues recording ... They have crafted an amazing, multi-textured sonic (...) experience - a landmark blues recording".
