Two sets of brothers, four sets of cousins playing pop/rock from when the genres meant something. Their newest album Self-Defense is on iTunes now.

Reviews for Self-Defense (EP, 2010):
"The trifecta is complete! Self-Defense is the third and final instalment in a series of stellar EPs from pop/rock purveyors Quinzy - and it's easily the best. Like its predecessors, Self-Defense boasts breathtaking melodies, meaty hooks and soaring, singalong choruses, but this collection of songs is the band's tightest and most realized yet. The arrangements are denser (see: the swaggering piano-driven romp I Dream in Exponents), the harmonies are more challenging (album closer Ode to Norman Borlaug is downright cinematic), and the hooks are, well, hookier. On the whole, Self-Defense is one hell of a dynamic and charismatic album. A+"

Reviews for These Nautical Miles:
"When Quinzy released One Boy's Guide to the Moon in the summer, I wrote in these pages that the EP - the first in a series of three - was a tough act to follow. Happily, the second instalment has far surpassed my expectations. Unlike its tight, punchy predecessor, These Nautical Miles is a big, roomy record, full of epic builds and atmospheric arrangements. With its driving bass lines and sprawling, soaring choruses, this seven-song set showcases a band that isn't afraid to work outside its three-minute pop/rock framework (see: the 10-minute Polywater). That said, this is hardly an unfocused outing - Fell In Love With The Enemy boasts one of the best melodic hooks I've heard in a while. A"

Reviews for One Boys Guide To The Moon:
"This confident, sophisticated disc -- expertly produced by Canadian veteran Michael Phillip Wojewoda, whose credits include BNL's Gordon and Rheostatics' Whale Music -- is supposedly the first of three EPs due this year. And if the rest sport melodies as pretty, harmonies as sweet, guitars as crunchy and hooks as sharp as this, Quinzy won't be the only ones over the moon."
