Review
"A lip-smacking Cure parody" --
Raygun"Not just because Vinnie and the Stardusters rhyme 'preheated' with 'eat it,' the album's best track is 'Bake My Pie." --
Register Guard, Eugene Oregon 3/28/97"Parodies wear thin unless the objet du scorn really deserves it; clearly, Robert Smith and the Cure really, really deserve it. Too left field for Weird Al, enter this Minneapolis jokebox, which microwaves 'Boys Don't Cry' until it explodes like the proverbial wet poodle. Just wait'll you hear the electronica/jungle version on the flip." --
Fred Mills, Magnet"The funniest entry on the album is Vinnie and the Starduster's 'Bake My Pie'--a hilarious spoof of the Cure's 'Boys Don't Cry." --
Minnesota Daily 1/16/97"The most remarked upon dish, however, would have to be the mocking pseudo-cover of the Cure's 'Boys Don't Cry' by Vinnie & the Stardusters-reimagined as 'Bake My Pie'" --
Option"The stuff legends are made of." --
Tufts Daily"You need to have this. This is definitely the one seven inch every collection must have." --
