“Best CD of 2010!!”
“With Mission Hill’s polished pop hooks, good looks, and tireless touring, it won’t be long before the profile of this foursome moves well beyond local neighborhood geography.”
“If Mission Hill were on a mission to save rock 'n' roll - they just might do it! ...these four fresh, fiery lads from Boston are the real deal: i.e. they can sing, write, and play with the passion and fervor that is (or was) mainstream rock 'n' roll. Adam Jensen possesses the Jon Bon Jovi / Johnny Rzeznik voice of gold (records).”
“Boston based indie rockers Mission Hill recently won the chance to open for Bon Jovi at their July 24th show at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts. While the bands performance at the show was a clear crowd pleaser and helped the band gain thousands of new fans, how the band got to the chance to play the show was pretty amazing.”
“Mission Hill’s alternative rock style may sound like others out there, but the thing that makes the band better than the rest (aside from the lyrics and catchy hooks) is lead singer Adam Jensen’s voice.”
“With catchy hooks, great vocals and songwriting, these pop-rockers have all the makings to become mega radio favorites. We’ll be watching closely for what should be a memorable year for the band.”
“Mission Hill is a collection of all that works in the popular, modern music scene: sensitive lyrics, passionate vocals, catchy, radio-ready beats and melodies, and four attractive performers.”
“Last week Mission Hill returned to Boston after having spent the last six weeks as the resident band at the new Hard Rock Cafe in, —wait for it — Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Frontman Adam Jensen says he isn’t sure how this booking came about, but when the band’s agent asked him his immediate reaction was, “F— yeah, man I’m in.”
“MISSION HILL SALUTE BOSTON WITH “FOREVER ANYWAY” MP3”
“...whether they play up their boyish charm, rock out with their hyper powerpop energy, or melt hearts with their lyrical sensitivity, the band weaves these three distinctive threads together in such a way that the final product is uniquely cohesive and far-reaching.”
“That Boston band Mission Hill, discovered by former KISS 108 music man David Corey, has signed with indie label Toucan Cove, which is distributed via Universal . The rockers are readying their first full-length record to be released Nov. 3”
“Maybe it’s a bit premature to make such a grand speculation on a band that has yet to release its freshman album, but if the group’s mounting momentum is to shine a light on what’s to come, then a blazingly bright future is likely in store for Mission Hill.”

“Stranded in Stereo Q&A: 1. Hailing from Boston makes us better than all those non-Boston bands because: "There are a shitload of really good musicians here in Boston, which makes for a very competitive scene and a great environment to hone your skills. Plus we have wicked cool accents."”
"Save Me From Me" is a perfect example of the lyrically conscious pop-rock that the band trades in, pushing things past the same old trappings that you find from most cookie-cutter pop-rock bands.
““Jen” is a passionate, contemporary rock ballad. The recording provides an excellent showcase for Jensen’s clear, expressive vocals...”
“There are bands that you develop a taste for over time and then there are bands that when you hear them for the first time you know you've found a new favorite - Mission Hill is my favorite new band! I think these guys have "BIG" written all over them.”
