	Mooney Suzuki
		The Mooney Suzuki might have done just that at the legendary garage festival, Cavestomp, in 1999 when they opened for the mythic Aguilar and Co. To be absolutely fair, the CWB did something that borders on heresy in the garage world.
		The Mooney Suzuki’s debut is a fine first album, but it doesn’t quite capture the sound and fury of the band on stage.
		James is the blueprint for a vast majority of the Mooney Suzuki's principles and motivations.

	TrouserPress.com :: Mooney Suzuki
		The Mooney Suzuki had the good fortune of forming right before three-chord garage rock tackled the American zeitgeist in late 2001, entitling them to street cred withheld from the Vines and the Strokes.
		Albums haven't communicated that energy wholesale; instead, the Mooney Suzuki has used the recording studio to clue listeners in to the pop songwriting craft lurking beneath the hard rock fireworks.
		The Mooney Suzuki sound like the sex hungry young men they were, barely into their 20s and no more serious than their shaggy bowl haircuts and Ray-Bans.

	Music \| The Mooney Suzuki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Last year, NYC garage-punk mainstays the Mooney Suzuki started edging into the mainstream by landing an opening slot on the Hives tour and scoring TV airplay on both a stylish Nike commercial and The Osbournes.
		Now frontman Sammy James Junior and company have got themselves a major-label deal, the first fruit of which is this enhanced reissue of their second album, which was originally released a year ago on the indie label Gammon.
		The Mooney Suzuki aren’t above sophistication: the mod vocal harmonies on " It’s Not Easy " are a highlight, and the tender heartbreak of " Oh Sweet Susanna " is punctuated by acoustic guitar and handclaps.

	The Mooney Suzuki - Alive & Amplified
		The Mooney's have their third album due out soon, and have knocked out an Alive and Amplified starter for your pleasure.
		Fresh from an appearance in Jack Black's School Of Rock, the Mooney's have a lot to say about, y'know, the state of the world and, as US citizens, how responsible they feel for the sins of rampant consumption.
		Mooney Suzuki are far more concerned about how they are, and I quote, "gonna blow my speakers and my mind", and have the sheer chutzpah to ask the £64,000 dollar question, "do you wanna get loose 'n' juicy?".

	The Mooney Suzuki - Epitonic.com: Hi Quality Free and Legal MP3 Music
		There isn't much question that The Mooney Suzuki are four of the coolest guys in New York City.
		The point here isn't "breaking new ground" or "being innovative" (which often means being insufferably pretentious), it's about going as fast as possible, working up a sweat, and bathing in the holy water of good old fashioned rock and roll redemption.
		The Mooney Suzuki rocked New York with such dirty rock compatriots as Thee Headcoats, the Make Up, and The Delta 72 for a few years before they slowed down long enough to record a self-titled three-song effort on Telstar Records.

		Mooney Suzuki are earning four-star reviews from every magazine that matters and yet the band still goes unrecognized in its own neighborhood bars.
		With the release of his band’s new record— specifically spiced to appease the tastes of mainstream munchers—the guy who vastly prefers the company of old friends to new groupies may soon be thrust from the dimly lit neon tavern of indie rock obscurity into the white hot heat of stardom.
		A love in labor, Alive and Amplified is textbook Mooney Suzuki in its rough-and-tumble ’70s rawk, relentlessness and palpable schoolboy merriment.

	The Mooney Suzuki Album Reviews
		Of all those retro-bands, The Mooney Suzuki are in my opinion one of the most convincing, although they’re probably even more traditional than, say, The Hives (more punk-oriented) or The Strokes (New York cool, baby!).
		Like the latter, The Mooney Suzuki (who actually have nothing in common with Can) not only sound as if they just trashed their parents’ album collections, they even sound as if they’re playing and having fun in 1970.
		The Mooney Suzuki certainly aren’t, but they’re aware of their limits, they capture the essence of their influences very well and wisely turned in an album so short (34 minutes – the ideal album length if you ask me) there’s no room for filler.

	Splendid: Features: The Mooney Suzuki
		Yet despite growing critical acclaim, two killer albums and a devoted fan base, The Mooney Suzuki remains on the fringes of the garage band frenzy, still waiting to capture the fancy of a fickle general public.
		That was the goal of The Mooney Suzuki in the first place, to be on Estrus records.
		You can also read this LiveLine, ostensibly about the Donnas, in which Jason Broccardo was more impressed by the Mooney Suzuki (even if he didn't realize there was a "the" in their name).

	Modamag \| Music: Mooney Suzuki
		We were sent some clips of a band called Mooney Suzuki and to my surprise, in contrast to most piling music submissions I get, they were actually quite decent.
		Mooney Suzuki's In a Young Man's Mind is a track that is finely balanced between garage rock and punk, infused with energy.
		And in a world of bands that all sound the same, that is never a bad thing.

	CityBeat: N.Y. State of Mooney (2002-04-04)
		James and Tyler formed The Mooney Suzuki four years ago while both were art students, James at New York's School of Visual Arts and Tyler at Parsons School of Design.
		For the better part of the next two years, the members of the Mooney Suzuki -- James, Tyler, and that rotating cast of rhythm sections -- doggedly pursued gigs in New York and the surrounding environs.
		The cynical listener might be tempted to believe that The Mooney Suzuki has adopted their Garage style in the face of its recently raised profile with the success of the Strokes as well as several Garage-minded outfits.

	Mooney Suzuki - Interview [KLUDGE SOUND]
		“The Mooney Suzuki never knew it was missing!” The crowd cheers and the band launches into another furious number, proving that no matter what’s on the magazine covers this week, rock ‘n’ roll will never go out of style.
		Despite what the detractors might say, the Mooney Suzuki’s performance style isn’t about the antics; it’s about the energy.
		The Mooney Suzuki is not sonically inspired, but the spirit of that band has been a big inspiration for us.

	mtv.com - News - Mooney Suzuki Save Jack Black's Butt, Plan To Work With The Matrix
		A couple of years ago, a crazed Mooney Suzuki fan bum-rushed the band during a show and squirted mustard on singer/guitarist Sammy James Jr.'s fuzz box guitar pedal.
		Mooney Suzuki will bring a dozen songs into a Los Angeles studio this week, but James said the group is prepared to spend the first of the scheduled six weeks writing new tunes with the Matrix.
		The nod to Suzuki came after Black and Tenacious D partner Kyle Gass struggled to come up with a song that had the right gravity.

	The Mooney Suzuki 'Alive & Amplified'
		The band that are so overblown they make The Darkness look like a sewing circle are releasing their breakthrough third album next week but you can hear it in full right here.
		Already three albums into their career The Mooney Suzuki are nonetheless relative unknowns on these shores, but their recent involvement with Jack Black's schlock 'n' roll-fest 'School of Rock' (they wrote the tunes you were humming all the way home from the cinema) has finally bought the NYC four-piece the recognition they deserve.
		But don't mistake this for a retro trip; The Mooney Suzuki have worn our clothes and walked our streets and are unafraid to apply modern tools to the principles of rock's glory days.

	The Mooney Suzuki
		That piece was written immediately after my first Mooney Suzuki experience, and can hopefully convey what a kick in the stomach it actually was.
		Not that they weren't good--(who knows?)--but the thing is, this early incarnation of Mooney Suzuki sounds more like Velvet Television than what they eventually turned into.
		Will, apparently, had taken the time and trouble to figure out where my workplace was--we had discussed this only in vague terms--and had popped in to surprise me, a scant 18 hours before piling into a hot van and leaving on a cross-country tour.

	Gammon Records
		"Upbeat, tuneful and unburdened by a wasted cut, a shoe-gazing moment or a free-jazz interpolation, the Mooney Suzuki are vastly superior to run-of-the-mill garage fare."
		"The Mooney Suzuki have been wowing audiences Stateside for the past two years with their incendiary sweat-drenched revue -- an unholy amalgam of Brit RandB, sexy Stax stomp and wild Motor City guitar."
		Yeah, the Strokes were trying, but two of their members tried out for the Mooney Suzuki and didn't make it.

		I would like to start by saying give it a rest to all of those saying Suzuki is nothing but sell-outs.
		This album might not be as dirty or rough around the edges as their previous ones, but I would still say it is just as much fun to listen to.
		They've got remarkable stage presence and the energy you leave with walking out of a Suzuki is unparalelled by any show I've been to.

	Ink 19 :: The Mooney Suzuki
		The difference, though, is that The Mooney Suzuki appear to pull off these retro-afro-glam rock stylings quite easily.
		In an age of political correctness, hearing a band that isn't too self-conscious to write words that could've been penned by KISS is oddly refreshing.
		The Mooney Suzuki are of the sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll school of music.

		Actually, the answer we're looking for is New York City's The Mooney Suzuki, a band drawing comparisons to legendary high-energy '60s bands such as the MC5.
		With a show that was quickly became infamous in the city, The Mooney Suzuki was asked to spread their ass-kicking meld of mod-garage rock and RandB to equally deserving music lovers around the country in the form a tour with The Donnas and Bratmobile.

	The Mooney Suzuki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Maybe due to the fact that it relies so heavily on the Nugget’s influenced garage-rock sound of the late 60’s, while The Strokes album utilized new-wave guitar lines and melodies to mix up their attack a bit.
		Much like The Who, a band whose studio albums could never match the power of their live show, (until Whos’s Next of course) The Mooney Suzuki seem a band that is best appreciated as a live phenomenon.
		But, since the 60’s garage attack is obviously their entire-schtick, the sound must fit the look at all times.

		Having spent years perfecting their incendiary live shows, through relentless touring, The Mooney Suzuki have proven themselves one of the most exciting bands around today.
		They were really good but thought that they were only a new band and didnt actaully have any albums out, still i took a mental note to keep and ear open for them.

		The Mooney Suzuki are alive and amplified, exclusively in the Xfm studio.
		Having got their Big Break last year courtesy of the Jack Black vehicle 'Rock School' (writing all the songs credited to Black's infant ensemble) The Mooney Suzuki lost no time in taking over the world.
		With an album and live show cementing their reputation as 150% pure entertainment, the NYC four-piece won their fans with a contemporary take on classic rock 'n' roll and a very, very retro take on the viability of purple flares.
