“This is brimming with more ideas than most bands will produce in a lifetime…’Zealots’ should be heralded as a classic debut album, and that’s not an exaggeration… these thirteen songs have given us every right to consider The Deadline Shakes one of the best new bands in the country.”

“I have a new term (I think) that I hope you remember when listening to this. “Future Classic”. “Zealots” has all the makings of a classic album without the risk of becoming tired or cliche.”
