"Schwervon!: got more of a Neil Young (Matt's guitar playing), Jon Spencer Blues Explosion (overall sound), Ween (sense of humor/mixing of Pop and indie-rock) kinda thing from these guys."
-Ear Farm

"...Schwervon pile on foot stomping drum beats with loads of guitar noise on their newest record. Add in boy/girl vocals that complement each other perfectly, a love for Sonic Youth and The Pixies, and I Dream of Teeth becomes a solid indie rock record. Keyboards and a glockenspiel guest star on a few songs and add that certain something to the album. Throw in a Princess Superstar style rap song and that pretty much closes the deal for me."
- Kyle J., 75 or Less

"... their sound continues to grow more sophisticated and mature. Nan Turner and Matt Roth once excelled at goofy, twee tunes about food and animals; the new I Dream of Teeth is darker and more expansive."
-Amy Phillips, Village Voice

“Like the White Stripes if they’d been raised on the records of ‘80s indie heroes The Wedding Present rather than Blind Willie McTell ones, New York boy/girl duo Schwervon! peddle a natty guitar drum rock’n’roll racket, substituting bass frequencies for gleeful indie pop aceness.”
-James Jam, NME

"Made the hairs on the back of my neck raise. Thank you."
-Tom Newman, Decode Magazine

“Poseur is essential - truly affecting music not simply made for effect. Matt & Nan are the King & Queen of the alt.rock underground & I want them to adopt me & keep me warm and safe forever. It’s a fucked up, lonely world we live in - & love is the only thing that keeps it turning! Schwervon! turned out nice again - there’s hope for all of us.”
-Jean Encoule, Trakmarx.com

“It can be loud and cute and mouth-along-able. Most of all, the Schwervon! kids sing about the real, the here and the now--laundry, depression, rent and repression- which is probably how they got mixed up with that sincere NYC anti-folk scene. So much damn fun.”
-Patrick Rapa, Philadelphia City Paper

“Like Frank Black and Kim Deal chewing over their problems surrounded by the wobbliest of guitars”
-The List

“The pop trash of Beat Happening collides with the anti-folk movement to give this slab of noisefolk. This transatlantic collaboration soundtracks a warts and all relationship undermined by the minutiae of everyday living, where shoes get lost, cats urinate, carrots get peeled, “I’m down on my knees while you’re grating cheese” and “Sorry is a board game”.
-Americana UK

“Angstfully honest.....you really don’t need more. It’s real life within music.”
-Marcel Feldmar, The Big Takeover

“Schwervon comes off as the inner life of a really cool couple - the kind who can have a play fight in front of you without your ever becoming uncomfortable. Moreover, when it’s finished, you might have trouble figuring out if it was just for play, or whether you were watching the opening shots of some real, heavy Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf-type emotion-breaking throwdown. And you’ll never, ever know. They’re just that cool.”
-Brett McCallon, Splendid

“....together they compliment each other like booze and fags. Simple as that.”
-Sounds XP (UK)

“Schwervon! is something unique...This is the kind of relationship, personally and musically, that I want. It’s not normal, it’s not boring, it’s real...This is one of those projects where there is no favorite song or most hated track. It is pure entertainment fused digitally onto a cd. I love it...”
-Brian Neill, bblah

“Schwervon! show quite a facility for crafting charming lo-fi pop songs.”
-Matt Fink, All Music Guide.com

“Like bad food and good sex on a weekday night!”
-Audio Galaxy

“There’s just two of them but they make a hell of a racket!”
