"Refocusing on the sonic principles that they were striving for when they got their tight-ass sloppy shit together in the first place, the Saturday single is a snapped shot of a band taking care of business in lean, road dog stance, ready to fuck or run, whatever happens first. A feculent mist hangs in the air, obscuring fine details and taking a bit of edge from things -- which is good because the power-trio-plus-singer that makes Dope Body is like, mostly all elbows and nails and split ends and bone shards and narrow-eyed sideways shades that cut like a knife, scoring the skin and hurting at the things underneath. Even the bass, rumblous and low as it is, is delineated with a serration that punches through the smoke from the guitar amplifier, the drums and screaming."

"It's about the freedom of influence and idea with mutual respect for internal faults and strengths. Together, Dope Body is a spasm of styles and directions, showering sparks from a half-melted thickness. Yes, they're a rock band, but that's acknowledged with apprehension and indifference. To them, they've always been a kind of science-labkitchen thing where the most offthewall and potentially dumbest shit they can imagine will sometimes make good things come out. And this year, some of those things made Natural History b(uh)-gah! Natural History is Dope Body in possession of what might be their most commercially accessible album ever --especially if your idea of 'commercially accessible' is - Machine Lips Moves/Psychic, Powerless/ or Salad Days- era punk."
