"This is a wonderful, promising debut from a band that understands rock ‘n’ roll rather than one attempting to imitate it"

Southeast Live

"This is a perfectly stunning release from this noisy little quartet from the great state of Tennessee. The High Score manages to take every known genre of rock and compound it into one solid mass of power pop. The group dabbles in everything from dissonance to straight-ahead roots rock, keeping their biting sense of humor just below the surface. The beauty of it is that it's not cold and calculated---there's a true spirit of rock which is usually absent from contemporary groups..." Mish Mash Reviews

"This debut album, in keeping with their Knoxville heritage, is an unassuming collection of pure, no-nonsense rock-n-roll laced with powerful pop sentiment. Treading softer ground, the band explores more sensitive songwriting arrangements and subtle, yet effective, vocal harmonies. This band knows how to pull it off."

I'm not sure if the members of The High Score are leaning towards pop or trying to hold on to their hard edge, either way the music on Sexy Losers works great.

"Honestly, how could you go wrong with the High Score? They've got Superdrag's keen sense of melody, Sugar's propensity for lacing pop songs with blistering riffs, and a GBV-ish sort of ragtag charm."

“The High Score are the four guys you'll want to look at to satiate your melodic cravings. From Knoxville, Tennessee, the band play fun, loose rock n' roll with an exciting, upbeat spirit."

"Sexy Losers is another in a long series (call it a tradition even) of homemade homegrown Knoxville homeboy music. What it lacks in spit and polish and fancy schmantz production, pitch-perfect vocals, and foot-tangling choreography it makes up for in grit, emotion, utter realness, and a complete absence of any sense of commerciality and trendiness. Screw Teen Spirit. This smells like rock and roll to me."

Whether casual or frantic, the guitar harmonies achieved by Cook and Trosper are intricate masterpieces - unconventional, unpredictable and unique in the Knoxville music scene. Cook and Trosper's finest moments with guitar are nothing short of inspirational.
