Ring of Truth feature in the ‘Top 25 New Music Critiques of 2009’: “We’re taken with the band’s ability to take retro influences, from classic ’60 pop to ‘70’s punk and channel it into something with a modern appeal. This crafty band...deserves attention from all areas.”
New Music Critique - Music Connection (Dec, 2009)

Ring of Truth feature at No.8 in Top 20 International Albums of 2009 here - http://www.snobsmusic.net/2009/12/best-of-2009-international-albums.html - "It seems as though the band draws upon almost every era in British post-punk to shape their sound... I suspect we'll be hearing a lot about Ring Of Truth very shortly” Rating: 8.5/10

”The entirety of Everything's the Same But in a Different Place is an exercise in exuberant Brit-pop, with a clear eye for music of yore.”
Matt Shimmer - Indieville (Oct, 2009)
“...It’s a strong performance from Ring of Truth, and I absolutely loved it. The album progresses well, going from the pop-rock, lighter fare of the opening, to more of a mellow tone in the middle, ending with the likes of “Smile” that are pure, unadulterated rock in all its vibrant and energetic glory.”
Brian Murph - Independent Clauses (May 28, 2009)
“With a debut this solid, our guess is that these guys have the potential to hit the big time in the near future...”

Rating: 5+/6 (“Excellent”)
Don W. Seven - LMNOP Reviews from dONW7 @ Babysue (May 1, 2009)
“Name any significant post-punk / Indie new wave band from the 70s or 80s and you'll find traces of their influence here...recommended”

Rating: 8/10
Martin Raybould - Whisperin & Hollerin (Jun 15, 2009)
“Everything’s the Same But in a Different Place, which is set for a June 2009 release...is a sweet collection of songs that cannot be missed.”

Rating: 8.5/10
Anne L. Carrington - Indie Music Stop (Apr 29, 2009)
“[Ring of Truth] are able to accomplish this due to the fact that the band itself works as a well-oiled machine with every band member bringing something to the table, an unfortunate flaw with most of today’s rock bands.”
