  1. Rolling Stone

    On is that increasingly rare rock & roll specimen -- a magnificently hedonistic party album for extremely consenting adults.

  2. Ink Blot Magazine
    80
    Ridiculously catchy melodies, driving synths, sharp, snapping drums, and super lo-fi bass and guitars churn out straight up dirty rock'n'roll, some twisted pop, and the occasional ethereal mid-tempo composition.

  3. Resonance

    Imperial Teen keeps it fresh, and the mostly mid-tempo On flavors its bubblegum pop by adding a sticky, erotic center. [#34, p.60]
