"This carefree ska-bop of a track instantly made me smile from ear to ear"
"The New Limits have a super fresh take on an age-old sound. The way this band blends everything from the rocksteady of the 60s to the 2-tone ska wave of the 80s and all the way to a more modern ska sound is brilliant and is a sound that begs to see live. "
- Girl at the Rock Shows
“Normal Day” is a laid back ska song dripping with soul. “
“This is ska/rocksteady for adults. It’s ultra chilled out music with some of the best horns in the city. “
“Even if you haven’t listened to ska since your youth, you need to check out “Normal Day.” This might help re-open the entire genre to you.”

“El ensamble musical bastante ecléctico y retro tiene una batería con mucho dinamismo y energía caribeña así como una guitarra contundente y vibrante y un bajo retro que le dan toda la esencia característica de este proyecto.“
“Stax artist William Bell’s wonderful “Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday” is given a terrific rocksteady treatment by The New Limits here”
– Steve Shafer – Duff Guide to Ska

“The session resulted in a 5-song EP of one fluid, live recording that, in all honesty, sounds pretty damn good for an in-studio take and represents the integrity of The New Limits as a live act.”
– Kristin Nicholls – Bishop and Rook
“The New Limits were certainly raised on the tunes during the heyday of American ska; however their take on the genre is no carbon copy.”
“The band is anchored by a tight rhythm section laying a foundation for soulful vocals and a horn section that knows exactly how to complement a song.”
“The New Limits kicked off the night stirring up the pot, they formed in early 2013. The band hails from Boston and play a mix of traditional two-tone ska and reggae, fitting in well, and kicking off the night leaving everyone ready for more.”
– Bill Jolliemore – National Rock Review
“I felt like this band could do no wrong…I can’t state how much this set kicked ass.”
