"Best New Band of 2009" and "Top 5 Albums of the Year" - Mass Movement

Winner of 100+ band competition - IndieWeek 2009

"...appeases the musically educated but exudes the mass appeal needed to land Darlings Of Chelsea on the covers of magazines and the tops of the charts." - Revolt

"...guttural demons bent on dismantling the Rolling Stones and Hellacopters, forging them into something sick and twisted yet beautifully entrancing." - Exclaim Magazine

"Voted #3 Top Albums of the year... like the New York Dolls f*$king Guns N' Roses... Sadly, it will take a Canadian band to add legitimacy to a US rock industry..." - Blogs'n'Roses

"...subtle lovers, raw rock'n'rollers, sugary pop rock fiends and sordid, guttural demons... a stunning debut" - CHARTattack!

"The hooks are huge, the songwriting is absolutely radiant... Darlings have a great shot at returning rock and roll back into what it’s supposed to be - badass." - Fazer Magazine

"Based on the quality of this EP, I would have sex with Darlings of Chelsea." - TigerBeat Socialites

"Two songs in and you are already playing air guitar... I hope this band takes over the world." - SPUN Blog

"What if, in the halcyon days of the early 70s, the undeniably rocking, glammed-up, punk-as-fuck Aerosmith-on a collective bender of booze and god-knows-what-else-stumbled across Doc's DeLorean and sped into their future, our present… Well, its one explanation for Darlings of Chelsea" - Mass Movement Magazine (Print Article)

"…they rocked and did a pretty good job at getting the crowd warmed up for the headliners. Getting crowd surfers to continuously float among the sweaty bodies before Spinnerette even set up - that's talent." - PluggedIn Media (Live Print Review)

"The Darlings of Chelsea rocked the narrow halls prior to Spinnerette making their entrance. Their brand of fast, gutsy, straight-ahead punk rock went over really well with the crowd…" - A Thousand Points of Light (Live Review)

"Darlings of Chelsea were incredible. This indie-rock band with punk leanings sounded huge, loud and dangerously cool." - the Grubtunes blog (Live Review)

"...there are so many reasons to listen to this band that jotting them all down, forging out some incendiary biblical template would seem pretentious."Andrew Paquet Photo Blog

SXSW 2010 interview over at Spinner.ca
