"The band itself is rock-solid. Curtis Dressman's guitar work shines ..." - Pitch Perfect

 "A well sculpted, emotive creation of substantial pop rock. The music could easily fit in the post-punk American indie scene of the 1980's and 90's. I hear reflections of Pixies, Husker Du, Weezer, Foo Fighters, even a little bit of Fugazi. ......."  - Issues Magazine

"New Moons concoct a sound that is reminiscent of ’90s AltRock’s heyday but doesn’t put off too much of a retro vibe. ..... With good chops and promising songwriting, Glass Planet shows New Moons is a band to keep an eye on." - CityBeat 

"The intrinsic promise of "You Want it, You Got It" is one few bands can deliver on, but here New Moons gets the formula just right, with top drawer hooks, guitars that chime and crunch in equal measure, and vocal delivery that shows a serious commitment to the notion of front-man charisma. There's no way those vocals are getting buried in the mix". - Soundblab
