These guys were nice enough to translate the review (instead of us relying on Babelfish, which can really butcher other languages). They even made a pretty PDF out of it.
Check it: Boston Beat Party
Here’s the German version:

And a snippet from the review:
Early praise is a difficult thing. When you don‘t know a band – or you know it‘s the band‘s first album or they’re not well-
known in Europe, you often find yourself listening to their music giving them some kind of »bonus«.
But what if a band even doesn’t need any bonus? Red Planet, the first album of The Vital Might, got me after one or two
times listening to it.

It’s always fun to read how something is translated into English from another language. Some of these phrases are keepers and we’ll use for years to come!

We got 4.5 out of 5 stars from prog taste-makers, Sea of Tranquility. This was a unique review in that it took each song on the album and discussed it specifically.

It’s always fascinating to hear band names that we don’t know much about in a review of our music. It compels us to find the music and see who else out there in the universe we might sound like!
Here’s the review:
http://www.ytsejam.com/modules.php?name=Reviews&rop=showcontent&id=1592
Here’s an excerpt:
Musically The Vital Might lends to the slicker side of indie rock, encompassed within the sounds of Modest Mouse and St. Vincent, along with the complexity (& even occasional heaviness) of The Mars Volta & Tool, add the more rooted prog sound of bands such as Spock’s Beard & Xinema and their recipe is set - the fit in with labelmates Fluttr Effect & Little Atlas as well as other alt-prog purveyors Dial, Jolly, and Liquid Scarlet - highly recommended for fans of any of those bands.
