| | Splendid: Features: Spinto Band |
 | | Members of the Spinto Band have been recording music together since before they could drive, before they had to shave and before they likely had any direct experience of the girls they dedicated their power pop anthems to. | | | In fact, their band started when some of them were still in middle school, when bassist Thomas Hughes and his brother Sam discovered that the audio equipment they'd been tripping over all their lives (their stepfather was a musician) could actually become the highlight of a really fun sleepover. | | | Soon, The Spinto Band -- named after Krill's grandfather, whose own scribbled songs (some of them written on Cracker Jack wrappers) filled an entire cabinet -- were recording in earnest. |

| | Yes, the Spinto Band has finally made it; through highschool that is. With rich, textured guitars, and multiple-part vocal harmonies, the Spinto Band’s repertoire is a maelstrom of indie perfection. | | | He showed the lyrics to his musician friends and they hit the ground running, ultimately abandoning the work of Roy Spinto but keeping his namesake while making their own kind of music. | | | As you are about to find out, Spinto Band songs can send you careening into the heights of lysergic bliss while providing the catchiest vibes to shake your tail feather to. |

| | Venus: The Spinto Band |
| | Following a swanky Pittsburgh show where the Spintos managed to deflower a preppy, martini-sipping crowd, they slung back their obligatory shares of on-the-house vodka (mustn’t be rude), then beelined to a friend’s pad for some of what all bad-ass bands crave in the early a.m. | | | When I hung with the Spinto Band, the boys were on the first leg of their summer tour in support of Nice and Nicely Done, their first album on a label, which came out June 7, 2005 on Bar/None. | | | The collection of new tracks plus old faves, which is actually the prolific band’s 12th release, falls somewhere in between the Pavement, Weezer and Jackson 5 schools of rock — it’s poppy without remorse, coolly apathetic, lyrically dweeby and often accompanied by suburban-white-boy choreography. |

| | Slices of the Spinto Band's tunes, such as the vocal harmonies and creative orchestration of their instrumentation, come across with the sophistication of the Beatles. | | | But there is much more to the Spinto Band that puts them in a box of their own: the harmonic and textural diversity of songs, and their creative sense of rhythm. | | | Now, on to the music from this crackerjack band. |

| | the spinto band + fields - live gig review |
| | Fields were quite similar to The Spinto Band in some ways, although a comparison with The Soundtrack of our Lives would be more fitting; their songs typically start out simple with jingly acoustic guitar pop but shortly burst into something just as melodic and playful but altogether heavier and more energetic. | | | The Spinto Band only came into the global musical consciousness last year with their 8th album Nice and Nicely Done having finally got a recording contract with Bar None Records (home to Architecture in Helsinki) after 7 self-released titles. | | | The comparisons of other reviewers to Pavement, the Flaming Lips and Yo la Tengo are all astute, although there's a definite original Spinto Band sound also. |

| | KLUDGE MAGAZINE - Review - The Spinto Band: Good Answer |
| | The Spinto Band creates great road trip music, great running music, great party music and, as I said, its live show is appropriately great to boot. | | | What's wrong with me? Here is a band (The Spinto Band) I love, an album (Good Answer) addicting to the max and a live show (well, you'll have to see Spinto's live show) envied by veterans and wannabes alike. | | | I have concluded I am either a miserable writer or befuddled by a band that leaves me speechless, so to write. |

| | Splendid Magazine reviews The Spinto Band: Good Answer |
| | Quite simple, really -- The Spinto Band actually take the time to craft their songs before committing them to tape, at which point they commit themselves to developing a sound that acknowledges a debt to pioneers of college rock without stumbling through tired re-treads and missteps. | | | For every song that Malkmus and company cranked out with cred as a bona fide classic, there was a stinker that confounded even the most diehard of fans. | | | Mistrust" that point toward a brilliant future for The Spinto Band. |

| | Roustabout! hosts Spinto Band, Martha Dumptruck Massacre |
| | For the last two weeks, The Spinto Band could most likely be found at one of three locations in our nation's country music capital: Grimey's, a used record store where they've been camping out and storing equipment, and either Alex the Great Studios or a nearby warehouse, putting the finishing touches on seven new songs. | | | Dumptruck drummer Scott Wiener didn't think the Spintos should be so eager for a head-to-head, however. | | | Making a case for the 'musical incest' label, four of those seven come from Spinto side projects: multi-instrumentalist Thomas Hughes' Carol Cleveland Sings lent three songs, and Krill's own mandolin rock effort, the Co-Mandies, drafted the tune "Oh Mandy." |
