Review snippets for "MSJ," the latest release from Minnesota Sex Junkies– “... as the final note slowly fades, you'll quickly realize that you've just experienced an incredible rock album with a massive 17 tracks, and not a single weak, filler song in the lot. In a failing industry intent on releasing mediocre albums with 2 good songs and 8 pedestrian placeholders, albums crafted as well as "MSJ" bestow hope unto us all.” - Michael Barnard “I'll get to the point immediately - buy this album! Minnesota Sex Junkies set out to record an album with multiple genres and as many songs as they could fit on a disc, and they pull it off with aplomb.” - Thomas Prichard
