All Music Guide's "Hot New Artist"
"Buttersprites are as unlikely a group from Seattle as one is liable to find: a bright,
happy, and funny female quintet combining Japanese pop with 1980s post-punk. Out of place
at home, elsewhere their gleeful mix is catching on thanks to their outstanding debut disc
and colorful live performances."
