Highlights...
"If you like Spoon, you might dig this new band The Selfish Gene." - VH1's Best Week Ever

"A memorable album that has more smarts, soul and just plain fun than most of what's considered "pop" these days." - Wisconsin State Journal / Capital Times

"Songs that are both delicately introspective and explosively grand." - National Public Radio

"Not only one of the best releases to come out of Wisconsin, but also a pretty damn fine record compared to everything else that the industry has rolled out in 2007." - Muzzle of Bees

"More Flaming Lips than Wilco, The Selfish Gene turn out elegant and delicate sunshine rock that is sure to dance as lightly through your speakers as a dandelion in the summer wind." - Veritas Lux Mea

"Original and thought-provoking" - Morecowbell

"An impressive piece of prog-inspired aural cotton candy that'll turn the darkest souls into shiny, happy people." - Isthmus
