'From Cat Stevens to Jay-Z, The WMDs experiment with all kinds of music. Don't mistake The WMDsfor just another cover band, though. When you see them live, their personal sound creeps into theircovers, which is enough to help listeners re-discover even their own favorite songs.'-Jaime Zublick, Williamsport Sun Gazette
