Praise for Diet Cig:

Swear I’m Good At This all adds up to a snapshot of a young songwriter navigating through the yearning and boredom, ambition and insecurity that accumulates along the rocky path from adolescence to adulthood. The power of Diet Cig comes from the way Luciano and Bowman bolster these themes with affirming positivity in the form of delightful, explosive anthems.”  NPR

 

“Fantastic Fuzz-Pop Debut” —   

Rolling Stone — 4 stars!

 

“The best pop-punk uses sweetness as a decoy for angst, and Alex Luciano, the frontwoman of Diet Cig, has a piercingly saccharine voice that veers toward extreme sadness as she deploys it.”  

– NY Times

 

“The delightfully titled ‘Barf Day’ (embodies) what makes the pair’s upcoming debut Swear I’m Good At This so enthralling: the featherweight garage grit, Luciano’s subversive sincerity, and bandmate Noah Bowman’s fist-pumping percussion…Against all odds, Diet Cig are coming of age on their own terms.”” – Stereogum

 

Swear I’m Good at This, (is) one of the most refreshingly fun albums of the year.” Noisey

 

“Diet Cig’s debut album driven by Alex Luciano, is one of the most effeminate, flippant, giggly and cute albums of the year – and that’s part of what makes it so f*cking good.”  Uproxx

 

“loud, blunt, and totally fun.” Under The Radar
