"Boston 's indie-rock outfit, Mean Creek, really knows how to pump up the epicness in their music as shown in their new single, "The Comedian". Coming out on a two song 7", "The Comedian" single showcases the raw power behind their musical capabilities while singer Chris Keene's vocals sound like a pleading holler." FILTER MAGAZINE
"The feedback-drenched breaks and monolithic chorus are sure to have fans of My Morning Jacket doing somersaults. If there’s more where The Comedian came from, folks as far away as Contoocook are liable to be singing the praises of Mean Creek before long." MY OLD KENTUCKY BLOG
"It's tough to catch your breath after listening to Mean Creek. The band's first release since 2009's The Sky (Or the Underground), this small offering delivers a taste of what's to come, and it promises to be awash with powerful vocals, swirling guitars and hard-driving rhythms. "The Comedian" builds from a slowly picked intro into a heavy, distorted chorus. Lead singer Chris Keene's vocals are edgy, like a barely harnessed scream that can't wait to get out. B-side "Liar/Thief" is an anthem, with spacey verses and reverb-soaked vocals driving the song toward a true chorus. Mean Creek put the focus on their rich lyrical canvas and strong inter-band dynamics, as they swell and flow through these tracks as a coherent group. It's less mean than it is complex, contemplative and immensely well produced." Dan Rys, WEEKLY DIG
