The Weekly Dig said:
"Three Day Threshold could be the soundtrack to a shotgun wedding, a tractor pull or an afterhours rockabilly prom, but most of all it's a show not to be missed."
The Boston Herald said:
"Boston's Three Day Threshold has a felicitously original sound. Combining the best of The Rolling Stones, The Pogues, Little Feat and Johnny Cash, Three Day Threshold gets juiced up. 3DTs songs are energetic, loud and crafted with terrific hooks."
