Some Quotes
- Pink Leather Jackets have started something special here. An EP with good, classic punk rock, mixed with unique lyrics and stylings you don't hear very often. When these guys release a full album, I will be one of the first to hear it, because if it even has a pinch of what this was like, it's something I'm really gonna enjoy.
— Carson Rowsell, Canadian Beats
- Think Cheap Trick meets The Strokes
— Tom Barlow
- Beneath the din of Punk distortion, but with good Pop harmonies,

- On their debut EP Good Love, standouts like Shed and Call You When I'm Drunk are full
of sneakin' around, getting' stoned, and other life-affirming pastimes.

- Relatable lines like, The look on your face when I walked in, you whispered, Oh fuck, and I
had a shit eating grin are more Rivers Cuomo than Johnny Rotten, and are laced with hooks
that leave you humming.

- They came on stage with their pink balloons, pink sunglasses, but no pink leather jackets!
What the hell! Well that disappointment was soon squashed when the opening song sounded
like one of today's punk rock radio tunes.

- These guys had enough juice to keep everyone happy, especially when the singer jumped into
the crowd to have a little rock party with them.
