"a power pop classic" -Rolling Stone Magazine

Music journalist John M. Borack: "September Gurls" was and is the sine qua non of power pop, a glorious glittering jewel with every facet cut and shined to absolute perfection. While the Raspberries' "Go All the Way" provides a definitive encapsulation of what power pop is, "September Gurls" goes even further, not so much as the embodiment of a genre, but as a peerless, aching distillation of love and longing. "September Gurls" may not actually be the greatest song ever recorded, but for the duration of its 2:47 running time, you can be forgiven for believing it is. -Wikipedia

”… we’re … talking about a band that didn’t bother rehearsing, began writing their own songs because they couldn’t play anyone else’s, thought prog-rock and punk were equally great in 1978, and cited Gerry Anderson’s television puppet shows, “Thunderbirds” and “Stingray”, as equal influences to that of Can and T. Rex.“ - Joe Tangari (Pitchfork.Com)
