“The music itself reminds me of Silversun Pickups in some regards but is definitely a step down in terms of intensity and speed. The Zoo Incident focuses on a less is more approach keeping all parts simple and clean allowing the story to be told in a way that listeners understand and can attach to.”

— I Know Stuff About Music

“The track "Experiment" is a warm, gently-saturating indiepop song that bodes well for the upcoming record.”

“The first time I heard them, I was immediately struck by their catchy guitar hooks and solid-yet-sweetly-sung vocals. On closer examination, it was easy to see that everything from the instrumental arrangements to their lyrics were as thoughtful as any band that had been together and known each other for years.”

— John Littlefield, Violent Success

“It has been unabashedly clear throughout Lovely just how close they have become, and because of that, the listeners want to become friends with them too, become part of their secret world, and Alex and Andrea have graciously allowed us a glimpse.”

— Stephanie Andropolis, Violent Success

“One of my favorite bands”

— Mr. Jaandlu, Jaandlu Underground 03.16.12 (episode 03)

“‘The Shortest Three Months’ is an archetype for all that is good in the world. With just one lyric, they create a succinct existence: “it’s nice to lay on the floor and dream.” The effortless feeling of just laying with the person you love imagining the possibilities of the future make it hard to believe that anything else exists. It is the feeling of the last day of school before summer vacation, the feeling we strive for our entire lives, all packaged neatly in a two minute song with optimistic and catchy melodies.”

— Stephanie Andropolis, Violent Success

“Listening to “Bad Guys,” the first track on the Zoo Incident's eponymous first album, I couldn't help thinking of Matador Records. Its subdued pop sound, complete with a funky guitar riff on the sparse side, doesn't so much conjure memories of the label's heavy hitters (Pavement, Belle and Sebastian, Yo La Tengo, etc.) as it does a smaller act on one of their compilations.”

— Mike McQuillian, Yab Yum Music and Arts

“In addtion to lead singer, Andrea Alaniz's uncanny voice that you would never believe came out of this tiny girls body, you have the smooth and captivating rifts from Guitarists, Alex Hamby... All in all, The Zoo Incident lived up to the very high expectations I had set for them.”

— Thomas Keith, Good People + Good Music= Awesome Night and Awesome show.
