“This album has left me in awe of what can be accomplished by two kids who happen to like playing music together”
“What is so sweet about this album is it feels like no one has told these guys who to be. There is a maturity to it, but also a genius way of pulling together some highly eclectic sounds.”
“They are either super-humanly talented, have a great producer, or more likely – both. The Foo-Fighters need to watch out, seriously. I love this album and can’t wait for the next one.”

“The Dodies have captured the raw essence of youth in a captivating debut album. Their desire to deliver authenticity and integrity has well and truly been achieved, as this collection of songs beckons bigger and better things to come for this excitingly ambitious duo.I hope to see them on the festival circuit across the UK in the near future.”

“The 13-song album is an amalgamate of genres from punk to rock to grunge all happily coexisting.”
“without a doubt a great beginning for The Dodies.”
Jersey Beat
“In the end, The Dodies deliver so many different elements to these songs that strictly referring to them as “Garage Rock” only tells part of the story.”

“Avittan’s vocals and guitar work mixed with the underrated and mind-blowing instrumental strongholds on synth-bass and drums is a combo-punch knockout that you can’t avoid but you’ll get right back in line for when the record is done”
“It might take a few listens through to really appreciate how good this record is, but when you get it, you get it and you truly appreciate it. “
With songs like “Stuck,” “Suburban Nights” and “Pussy Riot,” this is a record where no two songs sound alike and to make a record as strong as this and keep that consistency isn’t easy to do.”
“The duo of Yoni Avittan and Ran Aronson are swinging for the fences with this record and they knock it out of the park with a vast arsenal of instrumentals and they don’t let up until the very end. “

“I am amazed that it is only two people that have created this masterpiece.”
“The production is a perfect mix of a fantastic recording without taking out the garage band sound.”
“The one thing I really enjoy about this album is that every song is completely different, so you never know what’s coming next. I found myself wanting to rock hard, and then almost in tears throughout this journey, as the album title suggests, It’s One Hell of a Ride.”

“ I know bands of six guys that are not able to deliver the same amount of energy the two Israel based guys are capable of releasing. Pretty kickass, isn’t it.”

“What can be said that hasn’t been said already? They’re a brilliant band, who didn’t put a foot wrong with this latest effort. You might be thinking this was a bit of brown-nosing The Dodies, and for that, I apologise. Actually, no, I don’t. Look, just go out and grab yourself a copy of It’s One Hell of a Ride. You won’t regret it. “
