"The sound that 50 Sticks of Dynamite make on Love*Dream*Truth*Love is big….arena rock big. The basic guitar, bass, drums is given a roots link with the banjo. For its part, the banjo is electric and ready to claim its spot on stage with instruments known for their power. If sound were scent, the opening bass line for the song “Love Dream Truth Love” is made of pheromones. The drum and crunchy chords join to push the song along as Ian McFadyen waxes philosophical over a rhythm that takes no prisoners."  - Danny McCloskey, The Alternate Root
