Recently, they were interviewed on Kate Delany’s America Tonight Online Radio Show with close to a half million listeners and their music will be featured in the mountain bike and motocross DVD: N.W. Dirt Culture III coming Spring 2008.The band will be promoting their upcoming release, The Pursuit of Hopelessness, throughout the Summer of 2008 with a slew of shows at popular fairs, festivals, and clubs. This [their 3rd official release in as many years] can only be described as a Pop-Punk meets Alternative Rock masterpiece...
Matt G. Aug 2006, in Hussieskunk, Strait A Students is often times hilarious with their lyrics, especially sharp with their instruments and sound, but most importantly, the music is fun and entertaining without losing integrity of becoming too poppy and not enough punky!
