"The sun flowing through curtains stirred by the breeze. Riding your bike down a tree-lined avenue. Water balloons, sparklers, and bubble wrap. An old Astrud Gilberto record playing on a Fisher-Price record player. Bar-b-qued zucchini, sangria, and pierogis. Wrestling your cousin on the lawn and giving him an affectionate flying elbow smash. This is the best description I can come up with for Giant Value's second disc. GV's easy-going wisdom shines through clever lyrics and hummable tunres. Since this came out, Vinnie's tactful drumming, Dena's Gibsonic finesse, and Bru's bubbling bass and Farfisa action has had my head bobbing, mouth ooh-ing and aah-ing and la-la-la-ing, and much slapping of hands on dashboards. Throw your damned "Best of Bob Marley" no-woman-no-cry crap out the windah already and listen to this to be reminded that everything is eternally alright and beautiful. This is fun and thoughtful. This is the sound of two hands clapping." - (Dan Nelson, Bay Area Buzz Magazine, vol. 2, issue no. 2, Sept/Oct 2003, pg. 46)

"...On the Move will likely find its niche in the music collections of pop aficionados... The band's steady mix of youthful vocals, buzzing keyboards, sweet guitars, and mellow percussion is practically irresistible..." - Matt Shimmer, Indieville.com, Oct 13-19, 2003
