Austin-based La Snacks sound like they might be slackers. That's not a bad thing, mind you. The band's casual songs aren't packed with effects or a bevy of sounds to try to convince you of its members' extremely diverse record collections. Some clever turns of phrase and a slinky guitar line with just the right amount of distortion is enough to make the songs memorable. Sometimes the best way to show off is to show that you don't need to show off.
The Red Alert
"Lesser bands would regurgitate this in a dozen different approximations and call it a year, but La Snacks pursue some different stylistic directions, all seemingly guided by songwriting style that's ramshackle on the surface with smarts lurking underneath."
Leonard Lair
"Admittedly, the challenge to fill seventeen minutes with greatness is easier than cramming it on to a proper album. No matter, La Snacks have put together six excellent tracks of warped but tuneful indie rock which hark back to a time when this kind of music filled college radio airwaves in the 1990’s."
Bigtakerover Magazine
"Perhaps it's the way Segovia delivers his clever, wry lyrics in a vaguely detached style that oddly resembles Ray Davies, that sets them apart. Whatever the reason, their unpredictability and elusiveness is part of what makes them so darn good."
