A sampling of boss gremlin reviews:
“Those of you who wish you could have caught Blink-182, Green Day or Third Eye Blind before they blew up might just want to get out to see Boss Gremlin. The modern rock outfit infuse their punky, power-chord compositions with melodicism that’s sure to hook fans of the aforementioned.”---Metroland, 4/27/00 (Albany, NY arts paper)
"On its first full-length, Boss Gremlin mixes power pop, punk and rock in just the right amounts. Although easy comparisons can be made to Blink 182 and Green Day, this NY State quartet envinces enough originality on Beat Up Henry to stand on its own." – Amplifier Magazine
"Boss Gremlin describe themselves self-deprecatingly as "punk light," but this disc is more substantial than you¹d expect from that. Half the songs are under three minutes, and the conciseness really helps these energetic songs stick in your head.” -- Big Takeover
“The must see band in the Capital District is Boss Gremlin!” – WEQX-FM, 102.7
“Playing a type of ‘Punk-Pop lite’ with plenty of hooks and simple riffs, Boss Gremlin come across like Third Eye Blind's fourth orb. Playful and highly listenable.” - Listen.com
“Post-punk power-popsters Boss Gremlin serve up a blistering blast of melodic, muscular pop on its debut CD, Beat Up Henry.” – Greg Haymes, Albany Times-Union
“Boss Gremlin cut loose with charging guitars and shoot-from-the-hip tunes that take no prisoners.” – PowerofPop.com
“Chunky, anthemic power pop. Hooks that bite with feeling. If you've got a jones for some seriously fine ragged pop, Boss Gremlin will happily give you a bumpy ride.” – Aiding & Abetting
“With tons of riffs and hooks in front of splashing drums…Boss Gremlin falls nicely into the pop-punk genre…Their debut is an impressive showing. Tight and breezy, the 12 song effort seems to spin faster than other discs in the CD tray.” – Times Leader (N.E. PA)
“This CD has hooks galore…catchy as hell” – Steppin Out Magazine
"The album starts off with a one-two knock out power pop punch featuring...belting vocals and...fiery guitars. It's good to hear harder-edged rock that pays respect to melody as well." -- NY Power Pop Page
"Punk heroes like The Ramone's and post punk bands like The Replacements have put their stamp on Boss Gremlin.....Their music is fun for (nearly) every member of your family." -- ducts.org
