Music reviews

Music reviewers have described Marston's music as "instantly catchy, energetic pop rock tunes,"[13] "upbeat,"[14] and "crunchy."[15] Guitar World editor Brad Tolinski described Marston's lyrics as "unique" and that he has "something to say," which is "worth listening to."[16] My Old Kentucky Blog wrote that his music has "ragged urgency."[16] [17]

His vocals have been described as "over-enunciated,"[18] "understated,"[19] and having a "shy slur to sexy shout"[20] with an "endearing loneliness" and a "quirky confidence."[21]

His lyrics have been described by critic Addy Danti of Buzz Danti as "witty and wise beyond their years, set to grungy melodies that encapsulate a youthful angst. Another reviewer wrote that the "title track spins and jams with ferocity that doesn't take away from Marston's melodic quality."[22] Another described his lyrics as "sleepily whimsical poems,"[23] while another described them as "quirky and charming."[24]
