"For rarely are we treated to an act so unique and cutting-edge." -RC Joseph, 24 Hours Magazine (Vancouver)

"The playing is expert, not over-indulgent. Cudmore delivers a steady flow of conscience contemplations, with an unaffected clarion-like voice." - Sean Flinn, The Coast (Halifax)

"Language-Arts flood their verses with word-jumbles and playful imagery. dense and classically trained instrumental passages form the base... double bass lines swell under Cudmore's rapid-fire pixie -rap. Essentially, they're blending disarming indie-pop with classical influences and have an ear for jazzy hip-hop textures... If Small Run is an accurate sampling of said album (upcoming album Where Were You In the Wild?), it should be well worth the purchase... There's a wealth of creativity here, more than most bands use for an entire album." - Jeff Gready, Two Way Monologues (Toronto)

"Language-Arts spun a lovely lyrical lilt and yet dolled out complex time signatures... imagine a female junglaist M-C wearing your grandma's old cardigans." Turqouise Wave Sights (Saskatoon)
