Reviews"Frontman Eamon Hamilton's playful yelp has given way to a sturdier sound....His lyrics remains as brashly entertaining as ever...", 3 stars out of 5 -- "'Hey Hey' is jaunty rock 'n' roll with carefree lyrics....The standout, 'Why Tell The Truth (When It's Easier To Lie)' is sad and sweet but still manages to stay upbeat with its lively chorus.", "Brakes' instantly familiar new record is the sound of a group who know what side their bread is buttered on. 'Touchdown' is essentially a honed version of their earlier albums...", "TOUCHDOWN overflows with ideas imaginatively sifted from a range of genres, and feels honest, infectious, and personable from beginning to end.", Ranked #36 in Spin's "40 Best Albums Of 2009" -- "They always flash genuine curiosity and wit....Impossible not to like."
