Bad Veins have been selected as a "Band You Should Know" by MTV.com, saying “The band's secret is Davis’ knack for writing yearning, fuzzed out pop songs that straddle the murky divide between glum rockers the National and the nervous energy of the Strokes.” Their music has also been praised by USA Today's Pop Candy, Spin.com, Time Out New York and more.

“History is littered with great duos, from Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock to the Black Keys… [Bad Veins] carry on the it-takes-two-to-make-a-thing-go-right tradition.” — EW.com

"A dark, early ‘80s post-punk dance party." - AOL Spinner

“Cinematic indie pop that is lavish and grandiose, but completely accessible.” — CMJ.com
