    Listening to Bonito Generation I caught myself smiling the whole way through with childlike joy. It's just so upbeat and sweet, makes you forget all your problems until you just want to dance. The tunes are catchy, the lyrics cute, funny and innocent. While it is a a very bubblegum flavored pop record the production is very clean and tight. It reminded me a bit of Sam and the Womp, whom IListening to Bonito Generation I caught myself smiling the whole way through with childlike joy.

    A refinement of their bubblegum electro pop from Intro Bonito, Bonito Generation gives fun and upbeat songs to make even the toughest of hardened men tap their feet. BG has a core theme of staying youthful, shown in the lyrics and instrumentals. The sound can get redundant, however it is a sound worth indulging in.

    es BUENÍSIMOOOOO!!!! mucha de las canciones son pegadizas. tiene una temática simple, pero entendible. desde mi punto hasta llega a ser conceptual (si lo juntamos con intro bonito). mi canción favorita es y siempre será lipslap

    Oh my god, after listening to Justin Bieber's "Yummy", I craved another track / album that made me feel like I was a naive 5 year old again, until I found Bonito Generation. This is amazing, the lyrics make me feel just like when I used to doodie my pants and beg my mom for candies. 10/10

    Packed with breezy, witty, should-be hits, Bonito Generation is a winning mix of subversive art and genuine heart.

    It’s an album crammed full of massive singles; the musical equivalent of a table full of gaudy, delicious cupcakes. You know too much of it is probably bad for you, but you can’t help but diving in and sampling each and every one with relish.

    Exercising a more polished sound than heard on their debut Intro Bonito, which felt somewhat dinky by design--it was often centered around decisively hollow chiptune-inspired arrangements--Bonito Generation is its own self-reflective hit parade carrying with it five pre-album singles and the potential for at least a few more.
