"Nearly seven years in, and it shows: Philly combo Beretta 76 are battleship–tight and really hitting their stride right now as they merge power–pop, garage–punk and classic ’70s–style arena–sized hard rock into one whip–smart attack. Onstage singer–guitarist Camille Escobedo’s vocals, tough ’tude and allure might have you thinking of a threesome (artistically speaking, of course) between Pat Benatar, Joan Jett and Shirley Manson, while the rest of the band ably and often achieves their goal of making it ”blunt, unprissy, immediate, pissed off, melodic and raw–rocking.” Bonus: They do a roaring cover of AC/DC’s ”Whole Lotta Rosie” that could probably wake Bon Scott from the dead." - Michael Alan Goldberg, Philadelphia Weekly
