Press for How to Make Better Love (Fall Records, 2004)

"North Dakota has spawned a pop monster in this first band. Really great lo-fi songs that are both simple and complete. IN INK PLEASE is a great girl/guy band and could probably beat up the WHITE STRIPES. THE FOLIAGE play indie pop with electronic elements. Occasionally, they channel the beats of BJORK and the vocal stylings of LIZ PHAIR. Recommended!"

- AMP Magazine

 

"Two male-female duos that specialize in well-crafted, moody pop. The sorta stuff that makes for a nice, contemplative evening. [In Ink Please] The melodies are intricate but never jarring. The parts never stop moving, and that keeps the songs flowing well. [The Foliage] There are plenty of layers within both the sounds and musical lines, and the pieces seem primed to withstand an almost infinite number of listens... both put some great work down for the set. A fine showcase for two solid duos."

"In Ink Please - One girl, one boy, and a pop sensibility to make any Saddle Creek band jealous. North Dakota never sounded this good."

-UpBeetMusic

"The two band geeks [In Ink Please] blend together an obvious chemistry. In Ink Please give you music that would play well at a local coffee house or opening at a Bright Eyes concert. Expect big things."

"[In Ink Please & The Foliage] both have indie flares and are a flagship of lo-fi. While The Foliage is certainly more electronically based, often fusing bleeps and burps of samples with cute vocals and melodic strumming, In Ink Please relies more of the traditional singer/songwriter type of folk-pop. The title is a misnomer as while this album could certainly be responsible for bringing people closer it's more in the range of "where did you find this amazing album" variety rather than the booty call kind."
