Bodega Broken Equipment *

4 stars out of 5 -- "The brilliance of the band -- anchored by vocalists Ben Hozie and Nikki Belfiglio -- is how they incorporate these influences but avoid making impenetrable, overly literate music in the process."
Paste (magazine) - "Brooklyn art-rock party starters BODEGA take a hard look at New York City's unmovable truths, and fashion a set of razor-sharp dance-punk songs for their priced-out and displaced neighbors."
Pitchfork (Website) - "They shine best when they write about love, when their vocals go beyond sing-speaking, and when they blast the overdrive on their midtempo punk riffs. On 'Doers,' Hozie's cadence approaches rapping, an exciting new style for him."
Clash (Magazine) - "BODEGA has transformed from a band to watch to something truly exciting indeed. Any early album of the year contender for those who like their music as sharp as a knife."
