    Chris Payne, writing for Billboard:


    “She’s Kerosene” rose 25 percent in spins last week at alternative radio and currently sits at No. 32 on Billboard’s Alternative Songs chart, its peak position in three weeks on the tally. It just debuted on Rock Airplay (which covers all rock formats), so it’s certainly trending in the right direction. Contemporary alt radio doesn’t play much punk and is generally slow to play to female singers, across all genres. So why is there a decent chance your normie Facebook friends from high school will know this song by Labor Day? Allen (who goes by Aimee Interrupter now) and guitarist Kevin Bivona aren’t quite sure, but they’ve got wisdom to share.

    That song is a bona fide hit and this album is really fun.

    I discovered this band existed through a random paid Facebook ad - they were all over my newsfeed the couple weeks before their new album released. Maybe that works?

    Either way, the song's great, I love ska, and the more the better out there I say.

    This album rules so much. This, plus the new bosstones record and the new mad caddies record have made me so happy this summer.

    Music, a steady riot in my soul. Prestigious

    I fell in love with them after I first heard Say It Out Loud a few years back, and this one is even better. So glad to see they’re getting some success.

    To be fair, ska bands have been getting overlooked since 2000, so this is a nice change.

    Dig the song, hadn't heard of these guys until now. What's tripping me out most is seeing a drummer who isn't Travis Barker or Adrian Young using Orange County drums in 2018.
