There Are Rules
Quality Hill Records
ADDS 1/25/11
DIGITAL ONLY

“Some the best music the band have ever recorded…. A positively thrilling listen… should be viewed as nothing less than an absolutely stunning success.” ****½ (Alternative Press)

Most anticipated albums of 2011… (Stereogum)

“It's not just a culmination of everything the band has done musically up until this point, but a homogeneous execution of every attitude and emotion throughout their massive catalog. The album will take many for a head spin at first, but when it clicks, it resonates perfectly… the familiar nuances have been rearranged and built into something stronger, but the attitude and depth is all the same, if not more adhesive and much more endearing than before.” 88% (Absolute Punk)

“This is nothing like The Get Up Kids have done before, and it’s great… experimentation and growth from a talented band… a worthy addition to the music collection of any ardent emo fan” (Consequence of Sound)

“Early-days, loud-fast angst prevails, although with more keyboard atmosphere than you might recall…” (Spin Magazine)

“It still encompasses the emotional pieces that made up their releases from 1999's Something To Write Home About until the most recent EP, Simple Science, but now their tunes include electro elements which embellish those meaningful moments they're famous for providing into a new experiment for the band.” (RCRDLBL.com)
