about

Andee recorded the second P*S*K album with Bob Giovannetti in NJ while getting the live band off the ground in NYC. like the debut, it was made very quickly, which adds a ragged charm to the proceedings. the songs "Special Thing" and "Yer the $" became concert staples for the band as they ramped up their presence in the Lower East Side....

"Bands like The Faint can only dream of doing this as well as PSK...intense g..uitar driven pop that places bands like The Cure, Cheap Trick, Jellyfish, Jane`s Addiction and Prince in the same sentence and has it all make perfect sense." -- Not Lame Recordings

"PSK make the Cure look less than gloomy and make the Sex Pistols look like bubblegum" --Village Voice

"Why is this band flying under the radar?! PSK sling sugar-sweet, post-eighties pop with a dose of Marc Bolan's 'bubblegum androgyny." --NYPress

"PSK's eighties-inspired songs sizzle with their singer's clever and hyper-aware perspective" --Tris McCall Report

"Sometimes swaggering and sometimes winsome, the giddy rush of vocals might actually be the band's secret weapon...delicious Pleasure Principle-snarl, or loving electroclash homage or both." -- All Music Guide

"Aggro guitars and dancey beats combine with glammy vocals for an engaging '80's-tinged result" --CMJ

"The future of rock and roll" --Nuno Bettencourt

"PSK are nothing but nonsense." -- Pop Matters
