The new album from Eagle Scout, New Hands released last Tuesday by Cavity Records, has been garnering some pretty phenomenal coverage from critics… including some that border on fanatical.  One listen to the album though and it’s evident why they’re quickly becoming darlings of the press.

Here’s what some folks have had to say:

“It’s band’s like this, who meld profession and passion into one sumptuous ball, that deserve whatever it is us a**holes have to offer.” – absolutepunk.net

“New Hands is that rare kind of release that is full of poignant, dripping in sincerity vocals, rhythm section busyness, and is a flat out force to get you to bust a move…” – pastepunk.com

“Each of the five members pulls his weight perfectly, delivering an attention-grabbing performance and generating his share of infectious energy. Eagle Scout proves that it doesn’t matter that it’s been done before, or how many times; what matters is the presentation, and the execution. Make music good enough and you’ll transcend little things like genre or predecessors; do it right and you’ll be the new pioneer.” – Playback St. Louis

“New Hands is definitely one of my favorite records so far this year.” – bringonmixedreviews.com

Eagle Scout will also be featured in a forthcoming issue of British taste-maker magazine Rock Sound!

And it’s not just the critics raving about New Hands as Eagle Scout has seen their new CD reach #9 on Interpunk’s Best Selling CDs!
