"On his third album proper, Eamon McGrath blazes a jingoistic path in an attempt to capture what defines Canada and its music.

"On his third album, local folk-rocker Eamon McGrath moves easily between noisy punk-leaning anthems, quiet country ballads and back again." NNNN - NOW MAGAZINE
"Young Canadians, produced by Vancouver’s JC/DC (John Collins and Dave Carswell), is McGrath’s most ambitious album to date — ranging from ragged, arena-rock Springsteen-esque numbers (Signals) to fragile ballads shuddering with jagged feedback (Eternal Adolescence, Breaking Horses) to Arcade-Fire tempests with strings, guitar squalls and hyper piano (Instrument of My Release) to old saloon-style weepers backed by jangly guitars (Johnny Brought The Bottles Back)." - EDMONTON JOURNAL
