“Darn near legendary”
(Scott Mervis, Pgh Post Gazette)
“Free-form post-funk art-punk improv with a twisted smile”
(Ed Masley, Pgh Post Gazette)
“Iconoclast of the punk scene” (Manny Theiner, Pgh City Paper)
“The best band you never heard in your life. Even on an off night, they’ll blow you away.”
(Glenn Ricci, The Glyphs)
“Highbrow quirkiness, atonal psych-country melodies, absolute tightness, and a
propensity for story telling. A.T.S. is Phish for smart, angry kids with Attention Deficit Disorder.”
(Andrew Johnson, The Magnet)
“A.T.S. fuses Punk, Funk, Country and surreal lyrics.”
(Mike Shanley, In Pittsburgh)
“Traces of the Minutemen’s jazz-punk/rock-funk fusion and a sonic kinship to the
Meat Puppets shows that 99% of the noveua hippie bands from Blues Traveler to Phish
are downright unimaginative.”
(Fred Mills, Option)
“Required listening for frat boys who think King Missles’ “Detachable Penis” is Joyce-ian
wordplay. Gambles on the audience’s intelligence with a commitment to eclecticism and consummate musicianship.”
(Chris Potter, In Pittsburgh)
“High minded satire and musical style that is one -of -a –kind.”
(Gigz Giger, Rock and Roll Reporter)
