"Literary and historical allusions crop up on 'Prufrock,' which sparkles with chiming post-punk guitars as Andrew Spitser confides with a Morrissey-like sense of regret, 'The crashing waves drown out all I say.' He duets with his keyboardist-wife Kate Post Spitser on 'Long Walk Home,' where his jangly guitar spirals blend enchantingly into her breathy delivery. 'Big Bang' evolves from a spacy, languid intro with its flickering scrapes of Television-style chords into an impressively stormy landscape of whirring keyboards and crashing guitars." - LA Weekly
"Five intense volleys of indie rock with arcs back to a time indie rock was less self-conscious. The gnarly interplay between guitarists and the time signatures might bring Pavement or Sebadoh to mind.... Big and bold (and tender, when Kate Spitser's vocals enter the mix), rock whose working-class trappings disguise an essayist's soul." - LA Times Buzz Bands
"Radars to the Sky are easily among the best new live indie rock acts in LA.... They have tons of off-kilter charm and really deliver live.... Your new favorite live band." - Radio Free Silverlake
"The energy they exuded was unfathomable. Any time I tried to look for somebody else, buy a drink at the bar, or write some notes I would immediately have my attention taken back by whatever was happening on stage." "They are purveyors of an epic sound that demands and thrives on an excellent soundsystem. Their clever musical moves, swift guitar flourishes, keys that haunt beneath the skin of the thing, Andrew Spitser's undeniable voice, and their penchant for roping you in with the beat and rhythm were as engaging as any piece of musical entertainment you could ask for."- Classical Geek Theatre
"If all is right in the world, these guys should be the next big thing out of Silverlake." - Between Love and Like (NYC)
"Radars To The Sky proved to be extremely worthy of their residency at the Echo with a compelling performance.... 'Victoria' was a dynamic blast of frantic guitars and bouncy keyboards that were pulled together nicely by Andrew's longing vocals." - Little Radio
"Headliners Radars to the Sky constructed a tight, furiously whiplashed set list of pounding, literate, and intricately arranged indie rock, surrounded by the twinned bookends, “You Take it To Heart” and “Big Bang.” The two songs glide from aching balladic drifts to shattered rhythm and brass implosions (sax and trumpet lines crossweave on “Heart”) of Seamus Simpson’s knotty, finger-bled guitar lines, the spaced bliss of Kate Spitser’s keyboards, and vocalist Andrew Spitser’s impassioned howls." "It was a show that easily carried the epic swagger of a headliner." - Web In Front
"The EP begins with 'Long Walk Home,' a fuzzy, charming duet that has all the importance and hook of the best indie singles.... 'I Might' is the real revelation here: the drumming is some of the best around, and the fast pace and booming vocal tracks show off the best parts of this excellent new band.... This may be the best EP of 2008." - Berkeley Place
"The buzz on this band has been steadily brewing." - Rock Insider
"They combine the traditional indie rock guitar centered, multiple-part stylings of bands such as Built to Spill, Modest Mouse, and Pavement with some more traditional rock elements and then throw in a bit of alternative country introspection along the lines of Wilco to form their very own indie rock perspective." - Epitunes
"Their live show is incredibly strong and Andrew, the lead singer, has an incredible stage presence that makes the band a joy to watch." - Floating Away
