"sweet, piping-hot psych-soul pop"
-Boston Phoenix
".twitchy pop songs that would be right at home in the first generation of new wave.thinking man's punk.everything modern alternative rock should be, but so rarely is."
-Northeast Performer
".a bit of gritty roadhouse rock, a twinge of skronky jazz, a psych-y glow."
-Weekly Dig
"It is really great to see a band play punk that incorporates soul again, and with such energy and sincerity."
-The Noise
".The Diamond Mines dont sound like any other Boston band out there right now, and they dont fit into any predictable niche."
-Stuff @ night
".they couldn't be a more complete rock outfit. skilled musicianship and keen understanding of crafting hooks. the melding of different styles isn't forced."
-Northeast Perfomer
"If you were to define rock n roll, with special emphasis on the 'roll' part, not just the 'rock', this. would be the definition."
-The Noise
