Review in Pulse Magazine

We would like to thank the folks at Pulse Magazine for the recent review of our album "Play Thing".

Let’s start with the CD cover, since that’s what would grab you first while you’re browsing new releases in Newbury Comics or FYE. The CD you spot has a bunch of toy monkeys inside a crate banging small cymbals and bongos. Just playin’ around. Next, you see the band name: “The Cringe.” And you think to yourself, “Huh, interesting choice, a name that kind of says, ‘Back away!’” But you also grin at the humor of the toy monkeys and the statement that image is making. And maybe it’s the combination of that odd name with the wacky artwork that initially helped them draw in an audience ~ something they’ve certainly been doing in spades. But it’s the fact that these four guys blaze forth with a sense of rock that hearkens back to the days when combining genres was fresh and exciting that means when you pop in that CD, you are going to be rocked to your core by some killer music.
