Action Attack Helicopter by Ben Matulich... "The days of power punk pop are back and "The Everyday Heroes" seem to be quite content holding the crowded stage. I honestly found more hooks on this "mini-album" then the "Salt-Water Chronicles" on ESPN. I am not into promoting television but I do know a fine band when my ear crosses one, and that is what "The Everyday Heroes" are."
AMG Expert Review by Jim Esch... "The Everyday Heroes (Mike Savage, Zac Szymusiak, and Kyle McKee) formed in 2001 in Columbus, OH. On this band's debut EP, the Everyday Heroes shell out five taut punk-pop tunes full of blister and attitude. It is garden-variety tuneful post-punk, yet the best of the lot stand out thanks to their sniping wit: "Po-Go," a funny character study of a rock & roll gig-rat, and "Audiac Arrest," a broadside against a faded, bloated rock star."
Bangsheet by Kurt Hernon... "Smart tunes... smart enough to know better vocals, and a keen sense that this rock'n'roll thing is allowed to be fun, well then, you have something worth building on as a band - and we have something that's more than just worth listening to in optimistic anticipation of more. "You just don't hear people doing this sort of shit anymore," a friend said to me. He's right."
The Chimes by Dan Hille... "In a world that is filled with bands that are prepackaged and sold like cows on a beef market, it is always refreshing when an original act comes along. The Everyday Heroes are one of these acts... I can totally see The Everyday Heroes making some kind of noticeable splash in the mainstream. With all the chump acts that have hit mainstream radio over the last few years, time has more than come for a new honest band to rock your faces off." ... more
Delusions of Adequacy by Jeff Marsh... "With a nod to the garage-rock revival, The Everyday Heroes are guitar-propelled power-pop punk, mixing in 70s punk sensibilities, hints of new-wave righteous pop, and modern power-pop... the trio is walking alongside that crowded road, passing up typical punk bands who will probably be eyeing this young band next... they're taking a fork in the road that those other band's aren't seeing. They're definitely headed in the right direction."
Euphrodita's Empire (The Netherlands) by Erik Bakker... "Three boys from Columbus, Ohio has put their faith in wearing out rock music in the new millennium. Five great tracks are their witnesses... The one question which remains after listening to this EP: is this the future of rock'n'roll? After the King and the Boss no artist seriously claimed to give direction to this kind of music. Perhaps we don't need another hero, because there are thousand of rock groups on this planet. The Everyday Heroes are one of them and perhaps a promise for the future."
Firesideometer by Eric Gmutza... "The band's debut EP, Different Like Everyone Else, shows quite a bit of promise... The biggest thing these guys have going for them is their songwriting abilities... If the Everyday Heroes were in my local scene, I'd make it a point to go check them out - and I'd probably tell all my friends, 'Man, these guys could make it some day'."
Geek America by Tyson D. Thurston... "This is pretty good party rock... These guys have actually got some songwriting skills... Better than I expected."
Here and There E-Zine by Michael Sullivan... "Smart Foo Fighter style pop from this Ohio band really perked up my dreary snowy day. This 5 song EP is well written with plenty of hook laden radio friendly ear candy that would be a fresh breath of air on doom and gloom "alternative"radio. Vocalist Zac Szymusiak has a very cool, hip and mod way of delivering his songs. as he should considering he wrote or co-wrote all the songs on this debut effort. I found myself taking this CD on many car trips and singing "Out cruising" from the track "Po-Go". This is worth picking up..."
Indigo Flow (England) by Andy Malt... "This wouldn't be the first time I've received a CD from a band who claim to be heavily influenced by UK alternative music. However, I think this is the first time I've ever liked one of those bands... The Everyday Heroes are an American band and they know it. They haven't tried to sing with cockney accents and they haven't tried to mirror Johnny Marr's riffs. They just know what they like and this CD grabs you within the first ten seconds and holds you throughout its five tracks. The songs are ridiculously catchy and I'll probably have then rolling around my head for weeks to come... it's definitely worth your time."
Long Island Music Scene by Timothy Connolly... "This power-pop trio from Columbus, Ohio, is reminding all of us what pure rock-and-roll is all about. Their debut EP contains five tracks of hard party music, with no filler to spoil the bunch... In the face of today's ever-changing musical landscapes, The Everyday Heroes are certainly doing something right." ... more
The Original Sin (Belgium) by Didier Becu... "Was it Weezer who started the thing? I don't know but since some years there is such a punk scene that embraces the new wave sounds of the eighties with making pop-punk sing-a-long songs in where there are those type of synths that are used on early Elvis Costello and Devo-records. Well, The Everyday Heroes who are coming from Ohio are such a band... it's so fresh (and not only the music as they were formed at the beginning of a new millennium!) and on this CD-single that contains five songs let you forget all the recent crap we were confronted with the last years America discovered how to make punk getting into the charts as this is what we want... honest punk and if that can be done with some new wave-influences then it's more than just a bonus!"
Pathetic-Caverns by Reviewing Editor... "Five tunes of good-natured and sincere-sounding, if predictable, power pop, served up trio style with a little synth decoration and a lot of overdubbed guitar. Influences worn big on the sleeves, but I hear a welcome amount of old-school in the mix: Cars and Ramones, and the songs don't go on too long, and they have bridges 'n' stuff instead of just verse chorus verse chorus chorus. That's good."
Phantom Tollbooth by Alex Klages... "The Everyday Heroes, from Columbus, Ohio, play what amounts to good old rock and roll with a healthy bit of the turn-of-the-century punk attitude injected. It's for that reason that it's not inappropriate to say that this is an album which lives up to its title... The Heroes have a beginning platform on which to build future albums, and, if this EP is any indication, there is a lot of potential indeed."
Phase 9 Music (UK) by Kris Griffiths... "Their music is pop punk combining melody with discordance. Different, Like Everyone Else... sees the boys laying down the foundations of their musical future. "A Girl Called Love," its bouncing stomp is very catchy and reminiscent of Irish Indie band Ash... The Kinks-like riffola of "Audiac Arrest" pretty much sums up the basic but promising melodies of this threesome."
Real Time Records by Bobby Torres... "With a title "Different, Like Everyone Else," you got to hand it to these guys they've got a point. Their music is youthful, raw and innocent enough not to be over analyzed. For what it is, it's pretty good! What it is, is decent songs, decent writing, decent musicianship, energy and a 5 song demo. So check them out and maybe you'll appreciate the punks!"
The Rebel Base by Josh Hurst... "The Everyday Heroes aren't your typical Indie band. They certainly have elements of garage rock and pop/punk in their music, which is what one usually expects from an unsigned rock group, but this band's musical scope is a bit larger than many of their peers... if rugged, high-energy garage bands float your boat, The Everyday Heroes is a band to look for."
The Rock Hard Place by 'Torch'... "Perhaps the closest thing I've ever heard to "The Cars" since the legendary band broke up. They would fall more into the "Power Pop" or "Alternative Pop" category, but some of their killer hooks are something Ric Ocasek would totally appreciate... Classic Rock Era fans might find similarities to "The Kinks", especially on "Audiac Arrest." Younger fans might say there's elements of "Green Day" in the music... The truth is that we'd all be right. This is a band with diverse tastes and a knack (hey there's another one! The Knack!!) for writing some catchy tunes... Bottom line is there's a lot of potential here and with the proper career choices and a little luck, these guys could make some noise in the business."
Smother E-zine by J-Sin... "The Everyday Heroes aren't the next biggest thing and they're not the next holy-cow-they-reinvented-the-wheel band either but they're fun, energetic, and most importantly extremely ear-friendly... These guys are fun and have got to be entertaining as all hell live. Check 'em out."
Splendid E-zine by Mandy Shekleton... "The Everyday Heroes deliver a nice little blast of bouncy, riff-heavy power pop... their gleeful handclaps and keyboard blasts would make just about anyone smile, and the kids out there could do much worse for a pop record -- "fun and unpretentious" is the rule of the day here, and the Everyday Heroes wouldn't know how to do it any other way."
