"The Flying Eyes have brought psychedelic blues tripping into 2011 on
their second album ‘Done so Wrong’ with an
intensity that
could have you believing that the rainbow furred polar bear with
sunglasses on really is sipping a pina colada whilst pointing a gun at
you in the bathtub."
The Obelisk (USA)
"Wherever they go, The Flying Eyes have the momentum of two strong
albums behind them, and with runs of dates in both the US and Europe
already beginning to show in their chemistry and the tightness of their
arrangements, they remain a creative bright spot in a derivative
genre."
Chybucca
Sounds (UK)
"[...] rapturous Sabbath-stomp riffs sit alongside the Californian
narcotic warmth of The Doors, as well as the musical exploration of the
13th Floor Elevators, while patches of British blues and pastoral-pop
are also thrown in."
Sea of
Tranquility (USA)
"Closing track "Leave It All Behind" is so cool that it is my favorite
tune. Catchy acoustic riffs, harmonica, slide and banjo make for a Pink
Floyd meets Rolling Stones in a brotherly reunion. I could not help but
picking up my newly acquired axe after hearing this one!"
Musicwaves (FR)
"A la rythmique lourde et maitrisée, aux mélodies
évidentes et et envoutantes, au chant tellement profond et
habité, The Flying Eyes signe avec cet album à
l'emballage évocateur, une réussite totale. Vous
allez
adorer!"

"[...] l'écoute de Done So Wrong est un voyage
psychédélique pouvant entraîner
quelques addictions
auditives."
Doomanita (NL)
"Another musical pearl to keep you all happy and sunny during the first
days of spring. In Dutch we say: what more do you want? This is an
outstanding release from the Baltimore (Maryland) heavy psychedelic
rockers The Flying Eyes. The sound can be placed between DeWolff, Black
Keys, maybe Blowback, Siena Root and Josiah."
Concrete Web
(BE)
"Guitar driven hard rock with a drummer that just smacks the living
shit out of the skins. Crunchy distorted guitar leads and steady beats
make this one great release. The Flying Eyes churn ahead with a
thick-riffed sound, buoyed with fuzzy guitars and charismatic vocals."

Webzine (POR)
"Não serão necessárias drogas, pois a
música por si própria consegue induzir-nos num
estado de
hipnose extremo." (Drugs are not necessary, because the music itself
can lead us in a state of extreme hypnosis.)
Terrorverlag
(DE)
"Und dann, dann ist da noch der Blues, der über allem wie ein
drohendes Damokles-Schwert schwebt und über die komplette
Spieldauer omnipräsent ist. Kein ganz gewöhnlicher
Blues
natürlich, sondern wahlweise so sehr nach den
Südstaaten
klingend, dass man meint, Baltimore liege neuerdings in den Swamps,
oder aber auch im nächsten Moment ungemein psychoaktiver
LSD-Blues, der im besten Sinne
„Seele-zerstörend“ sein
kann. Beeindruckend."
Stonerrock.de

"Zum Großteil leichter bis schwerer 70er Psychedelic Rock
aber irgendwie dann doch: Zeitlos. Volle Empfehlung!"
Berliner
Morgenpost (DE)
"Ein Album mit sehr guten, melodisch eingängigen Songs, die
hängen bleiben."
Cosmic Lava
(DE)
"It's pretty deep, sincere and a massively heavy work in the grand
tradition of dark psychedelia. This well produced, thoughtful album is
a great place to begin or continue your exploration of THE FLYING EYES.
Highly recommended for repeated listening and worth every penny."
