"This Is Not About Kat (Convincing Everyone), quite possibly the most fun you'll ever have listening to a song about someone being told "Let's just be friends." Chock full of jigging rhythms, this song is guaranteed to slap a big silly grin on your face and get your feet tapping away."
- Leeds Music Scene
"Blood Oranges from Leeds are another highlight. All in all, Still Occupied Though You Forget is a very solid compilation of some very cool (and some very hip) bands who deserve more recognition (especially Blood Oranges)."
- Tasty Fanzine
"Whilst new to the scene, Blood Oranges were the most accomplished of Vivian Girls' supports; ones to watch."
- QUIMS Blog
"Best of all is the euphoric, skipping indie pop of This Is Not About Kat where Blood Oranges' calypso keys bring joy to the Dance To The Radio compilation."
- Sounds XP
"Leeds is home to some of the UK's biggest breaking bands; Pulled Apart By Horses, Sky Larkin and Blood Oranges."
