VICE: (BEST ALBUM OF THE MONTH!) "This record is so good that we love it even after the band turned down our interview request."

Filter: "Perhap's the band's name is less about Sharpies and more about mapping the paranormal activity, because "BOSS" is a small atlas of wonderful wierdness."

Plan B: "Ambrogio's voice is sweet and dangerous, licking blood and syrup froma hunting knife's razored edge. There's a wild threat hanging in the sky and this bleak frontier poetry is the only answer..."

Lound and Quiet: "Elisa Ambrogio is a tougher, disengaged Polly Harvey while a brief appearance from Lee Ranaldo packs a hefty punch to complete 9 songs worth of dirty, distorted genius."

WIRE: "BOSS", Magik Marker's most straightforward set of rock songs, is still rife with a liberating freedoom.

ARTHUR: "This is not beer music. But you could drink bottles of whiskey to it on a hot Saturday afternoon."

Rock Sound: "Pianos and blossoming dronefolk cuts take their place on the latter half of "BOSS", and there's no compromise, just gleeful reinvention"

XLR8: "BOSS" signals a healthy direction for a band that otherwise kisses the plastic explosives to it's chest.
