"... delightful pop-punk ... peppy, overdriven anthems that transcend simple trappings on the strength of Ms. Luciano’s expert phrasing and super-specific, pithy, slice-of-life lyrics."
- The New York Times
"Four Stars ... (the) duo specialize in lovesick fuzz-pop on their fantastic debut album ... guitar-toting firecracker Alex Luciano keeps tripping over her own reluctant sentimental streak in these sardonic modern-love vignettes ..."
- Rolling Stone
"... undeniably charming duo ... brilliantly bottles Luciano's energy ... a frenetic showcase for Luciano's thrashing guitars and cooing harmonies and Bowman's pounding drums. The record benefits from a tour-honed chemistry that yields sharper hooks and fuller production than any of Diet Cig's previous singles ... with every taut banger comes the kind of candy-coated melodies that dare you to resist shouting along in unison ... a snapshot of a young songwriter navigating through the yearning and boredom, ambition and insecurity that accumulates along the rocky path from adolescence to adulthood. The power of Diet Cig comes from the way Luciano and Bowman bolster these themes with affirming positivity in the form of delightful, explosive anthems. These songs will surely give anyone weathering their own tough moments the confidence to pick themselves up and dance."

New York City-based Diet Cig follows its infectious 2015 EP Over Easy with this debut full-length album Swear I’m Good At This, featuring the band's consistent singalong lyrics with thrashing drums and strums. Consisting of guitarist and vocalist Alex Luciano and drummer Noah Bowman, the duo crafts life-affirming, relatable tales with a gutsy heart at their core, framing Luciano's lyrics that are both vulnerable and badass, a perfect storm of emotive reflection.
