“Söderlund hits with a light touch. She’s not out to harangue us about the evils of the fashion or diet industries, she’s just here to say she’s going to ignore all that and just do what she wants with herself. More power to her.”

“Shannon has songs. So many songs. Good ones. Great ones. She keeps making more.”

“It’s a fantastic album overall – the songs are melodic, but it never sounds too mainstream”

“The sound of her vocals are so comforting, it almost feels more like a heartfelt conversation with a good friend [...] It’s a well-crafted, catchy, and creative alt-pop song that will be in my rotation for a long time.”

“ ‘Character’ comes with multiple genres, packaged in that distinctive wrapping of beguilement, sultry darkness, and jazzy/operatic thought retribution we love.”

“‘Character’ by Punch The Sun has definitely raised the bar for the alternative genre.”

“Whilst the band’s music can certainly be contained within the alt-rock genre, it also features elements of grunge, jazz, and the blues – making for one colossal sound!”

“Punch The Sun and I have a whole lot in common when it comes to making friends. Their newest single Character says “Aww see I wanna be friends but I dont want to make them” I can relate. ”

“The more we play and the more I write, the more cohesive this music has become – and it really does tie into the stuff we grew up listening to in the 90’s and early 2000’s.”

“As a whole, the song powers it’s listeners with a sort of angst that’s only found by expressive arrangements and powerful rock chords. Fans of early Foo Fighters and Tori Amos will gravitate instantly to Punch The Sun’s discography.”

“Punch the Sun have released a absolute gem of a song [...] ‘Mistakes’ is super contagious.”

“I write everything for the band, but as we’ve continued to play together the arranging has become much more collaborative [...] The longer we play together, the easier it is for us to find sounds that work”
