Praise for 'Fade Away'
 
"Lyrically introspective, musically tight and vocally resolute, Fade Away is Best Coast's best work to date." - Alternative Press
 
"It's just seven songs but still felt like a breakthrough." - Rolling Stone 

"As Best Coast grow and mature, new layers of surprising depth are emerging. For an EP, this record is remarkably satisfying and fulfilling. It feels like an album." - ABC News
 
"Best Coast's Fade Away is a short, sweet burst of the effervescent sun-dappled pop-rock we've come to crave from Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno." - Stereogum 
 
"What's accomplished by Fade Away, released on Ms. Cosentino's new label, Jewel City, is balance. These love-battered songs, with chugging beats, strummy distortion and lyrics as bluish-black as a bruise, don't suggest a retrenchment so much as a realignment, as if Best Coast had absorbed its lessons and figured out what to leave behind." - New York Times
