"The pursuit of the mythic All then brought the group to Allroy Saves, a complex and sophisticated album that trades in difficult rhythms and intricate guitar figures, pop melodies and thoughtful lyrics. With Reynolds taking the lead writing role, conversational narratives about losers, fools, cops and frogs make Saves fascinating and provocative; the rough music alternates All-some catchiness (as on old pal Milo Aukerman’s Gen X-y “Just Like Them”) with a challenging attack that approaches an unpretentious punk Police. (The high end of Reynolds’ voice does have a Sting-like quality to it.)"
