Jump right down below and play song #1, Magic Wand - one of my favorite tracks I`ve heard in the past months but, fortunately, as "Attack!" plays from beginning to end, each and every song stands right up alongside the wonderfulness of that first song because this is a feast of really rock `n roll filled with Memphis-styled roots on display, embedded in every special groove here. "Mention Memphis and Ardent Studios, and Big Star comes to mind. Well, here`s a Memphis band that enlisted Adam Hill, an Ardent Studios engineer, to mix and produce their debut, and darned if these guys don`t have a little Chilton in them. They manage to mix power pop, rock and R&B in an intoxicating mix, and grab you from the get-go with `Magic Wand`, 3:16 of rollicking goodness that brings to mind the classics as well as current bands like The Whigs. `Down In Yer Pocket` could be The Black Keys mixed with Booker T & The MGs, and `Darlin` Wait` is an awesome rave-up. Elsewhere `Picture Show` sounds like a lost `Nugget`, `Don`t Cry` is a dusty barroom ballad, and `B&E` rocks with abandon. Although you don`t hear the `Memphis sound` much any more from new bands, these guys do it proud." - Absolute Power Pop blog. "Take a little bit of garage, a whole lotta power pop, touches of Beach Boys vocal harmonies, sprinkle in some twang, some soul - pure Memphis, in other words. The music city`s in the quintet`s genes, in other words (and in their jeans as well), and based upon the evidence of the Bulletproof Vests` debut album Attack!, they couldn`t fake it if they tried. From `To The Moon,` which righteously marries Big Star to T. Rex, through the anthemic pop/soul (think erstwhile Memphians the Reigning Sound) of both `Magic Wand` and `Down In Yer Pocket,` and all the way to the unreconstructed `Nuggets`-worthy, raveup of `Queenie in Trouble` that`ll have you hittin` the nighttime avenues, ready to rumble - these guys got the stuff!" - Blurt Online. "Big Star-meets-T. Rex mashup" - Memphis Flyer. Don`t believe? Start sampling below - spend some time and you`ll be won over. Grade: Solid "A".
