Here's what people have said about Frog's 2015 album 'Kind of Blah':
"Imagine the euphoric pop of Small Wonder getting caught in a time warp to the wild west with Modest Mouse’s ‘Satin in a Coffin’ and you just about scratch the surface." - DIY Mag

"Oh, god. Help me, words. Help me convey what a blessing Frog is." - Collapse Board"A record whose sheer flood of ideas couldn't be denied...Irreverent, strange and just a little addictive." - CLASH Music

"A bit of a masterpiece." - 7BitArcade

"A safer bet there’s never been – this record is essential." - GoldFlakePaint

"Utterly brilliant...they make you nostalgic for memories you never had and take you back to places you’ve never before been." - London In Stereo

Dreamy Americana soundscapes...Despite sounding ever-so-slightly menacing at points, it's deliciously sweet for the most part." - The Line of Best Fit

"Makes me grin so hard I think my face may actually split into two separate parts." - The 405

"Making you pine for romances you’ve never had...Perhaps the one unifying factor of the record is the degree of humanity upheld by each track present, the emotions and the experiences almost all universal - 4/5." - Artrocker

"An LP you'll want to faun over and adore even when it confuses the hell out of you. The best artists never bare all on arrival and this is no different. Give it spin. And then another - until it makes sense - 8/10." - The Digital Fix
