"Probably the most inventive irish album this decade. Brimming with energy and exoticness." -4/5 stars Sunday Tribune
"Super Extra Bonus Party kick out the jams with a barrage of magnificent sounds and shapes... There's clattering electro, hypnotic indie-pop drones, a bit of dreamy ambience, a belt of dirty hip hop rudeboyisms, and moments where all of the above appear to come perfectly together in one very deep and wide soundclash. "4/5 stars- Irish Times
"The schizophrenic sequencing and magpie eclecticism of Super Extra Bonus Party's debut is a joyous sign of the times. The mix CD sensibility leads us on an emotional, exhausting but ultimately satisfying journey. It begins, like many great records, with a rousing instrumental; a trumpet that pierces the silence, slippery cut-ups darting back and forth in the background, tropical percussion gets us on our feet..."- Foggy Notions
"Brilliant Stuff" - Hot Press
"Contender for Iish album of the year? You betcha... one of the most diverse and eclectic Irish albums of recent memory.. an ambitious album which takes in jump-up electronica, indie-pop belters, hip hop workouts with dabbles of ambient and heavier rock sounds." - Nialler9.com (Irish music blog of the year)
"A collection of big beat sounds and high energy electronic pop sounds with lots of dubby effects thrown in for good measure... as the band name suggests it is perfect uptempo party music." - Road Records
SEBP already released the Super Extra Bonus Party EP in May 06, earning demo of the week in Hot Press (“brilliant stuff”- Jackie Hayden) and their alphabet set Christmas Party in 06 made it into the top ten gigs of Christmas alongside the likes of Snow Patrol and Pharrell Williams.
