Kevin Mathew's Review of Television Mind
at nighttimes.com "Going
Underground Dec. 04": "Shining pop-rock - the '70s kind. That's what the Cleavers deliver, and in spades. Not only that, but
the pristine production and sophisticated arrangements (including brash horns) contribute to distinguish Television Mind
as an intelligent album that demands more from its listener than your standard three-chord new school punk. Echoes of Todd
Rundgren, 10cc, Wings, Queen and Styx abound on this classy effort."

Television Mind
Recommended by Not Lame Records
"This is a home-grown collection of pop in the vein
of the Squeeze, Crowded House, later-day Beatles, Al Stewart and Steely Dan. With an eclectic array of influences, The Cleavers
combine solid playing with hefty hooks, humor, folksy instrumentation and harmonies. The songs are consistently enjoyable
and carefully crafted and beg to be captured in a full-blown studio (ala Steely Dan, come to think of it). The Cleavers create
briskly MOR-ish melodic soundscapes and richly painted lyrics and hint to very good things to come from this debut. Recommended."
