Pitchfork - "The butter wouldn't melt, so he put it in his pie eyes. Philly quartet Drink Up Buttercup build you up with the post-Beatles harmonies of the La's and the post-Beatles surrealism of Electric Light Orchestra or Super Furry Animals on their rowdy rave-up of a single, "Mr. Pie Eyes". And not to let you down too much, either, even if they're not reinventing the wheel here. Lumbering drums, jangling shakers, electronic squiggles, and lots of whimsical, ragged shouts accompany the strutting bass line and stomping guitar. As with, say, Chicago indie-rockers the M's, it's all just loose and playful enough to avoid coming across as overly nostalgic. "Oh my goodness, Mr. Pie Eyes, have you lost your mind?"
