“Whatever else happens, there will be no better song titles Thursday night than those by Little Rock's The Talking Liberties, whose latest EP, "Don't Trust the Humans," includes tracks with names like "Between Some Lions" and, incredibly, "Paul Reubens Holding Wasps." The band, fronted by trippy-synth mastermind Wes Acklin, specializes in widescreen glow-stick rock indebted to MGMT or The Flaming Lips, and claims to exist "solely to groove your bones and melt your brain," a mission statement I don't think they mean to sound as threatening as it does.”

“I have a feeling Talking Liberties will really blossom into something great.”

“The singing was polished and really flawless. The songs sounded confident, like a pro and definitely marketable to the mainstream audience. The well-written lyrics were an added asset for the track as well. Not hard to market this kind of pleasurable music.”

“A great voice with a wonderful lilt that is cheerful, joyous, inspirational, heartfelt, sincere, and strong. With good lyrics that are interesting, upbeat, and charismatic, filled with energy, and live. The music wraps the whole things up nicely as this guy sings his heart and soul out to us. Each and every track is brilliant, entertaining, vibrant and has a good atmosphere on top. This makes you savor his voice and music (let alone lyrics) to the max.”
