"In the competition for prettiest indie rock album of the year, this Brooklyn threesome's Let Go not only gives Death Cab for Cutie's forthcoming Transatlanticism a run for its money, but trumps it in terms of restless internal energy -- drive that likely comes in part from being unjustly dismissed as one-hit wonders since the mid '90s. Live, they charm charm charm."  (Village Voice)

"Nada Surf’s continuing growth and development from power emocore trio to distinctive sophisticated artists in their own right is evident on this superlative latest effort. Much to admire here for modern rock fans – Let Go draws easily from the same well as A Rush of Blood to the Head – certainly there are many similarities to be drawn between Nada Surf and Coldplay. And that my dear readers is a recommendation."  (Power of Pop)

"Let Go is an impossible record - twelve perfect pop rock nuggets of the sort you thought the world didn't make anymore, the kind that punk supposedly made irrelevant."  (Static Magazine)
