"The Balkans craft an energetic punk grind that waivers between bouts of sincerity and catharsis."
"Balkans play surfy melancholy and Beatles-esque hooks on fast forward."

"Predator's roots can be traced back to a much earlier day of Atlanta punk when Douchemaster had just begun assembling its initial roster and Die Slaughterhaus was still run by Black Lips. At this time Brannon Greene and Mike "Bison" Beavers were just old enough to buy their own beer but were cranking out brilliant harcore punk under the name Frantic, a band that could have rivaled Carbonas if the circumstances were any different. They would also be a founding part of Beat Beat Beat, but in it's demise they would join forces with John Necro and summon up the same youthful attitudes and dark ingenuity they once nailed in Frantic. Within a few short months this trio has become forerunners in the Atlanta punk scene."

"Mood Rings’ debut EP is called Sweater Weather Forever, a title we’re going to blatantly rip off for a future Itemized post. This winter has been heavy on the knits, mostly out of sleepy-eyed getting-dressed laziness, last night’s pinstripe Oxford reborn under the nearest top-of-the-hamper crew neck. That Mood Rings are from Atlanta—and that their album cover features swamp skinny-dipping, and that it was produced by Washed Out’s producer Phil Jones—seems to orient things away from the gray-out title we’re picturing, somewhere toward porch light High Life’s and shoegazing the banks of the Etowah. Sweater Weather flies by, only four short songs, but it sounds so effortless and exact that 13 minutes feels just right." - The Fader
