" A child used music to survive and communicate difficult feelings. The adult artist measures the work by whether someone else feels less alone."

" The release is a testament to the band’s spirit, carried forth by a sense of empathy, empowerment and community."

" ...Callie Crofts makes the song searingly intimate by speaking directly to the frightened human being inside all of us..."

" It's a stunning piece of work, a real tour de force."

" It was clear to me why fans perceive the band as “conscious pop,” and why Die Shiny claims the genre with pride."

" I’m just going to say it: Die Shiny is one of the coolest bands to ever come out of Salt Lake City."

" Their bold lyricism and intellectual depth ring out like an anthem for the oppressed"

" Their electrifying sound is joyous and entertaining"

" Fierce, unapologetic, and rooted in activism, Die Shiny is redefining what it means to be queer and loud."

" The video is full of hauntingly beautiful imagery that will stick with you..."

"...easy to get lost in - Crofts and Bryant are inspired by many different sounds and genres, and you can hear traces of those throughout the work."

" Crofts combines the pep and sass of Lily Allen with the fast-paced wordplay of Watsky for lyrics that are equal parts nutty and shrewd "

" It's expertly crafted, and has so many great lyrics that you'll have to listen a second, third, or even fourth time to catch the bad-ass lines. "

" Imagine a world where the patriarchy isn’t fought with bombs or guns, but danced to death."
