CRITICS' CHOICE POP BILLBOARD JUNE 23, 2001 "In the wake of the breakup of Knoxville rockers the V-roys, band member Scott Miller steps out on his own via Sugar Hill, and the result is arguably the best roots-rock album of the year." ---------- The Year in Pop and Jazz: The Critics' Choices, New York Times, Dec. 23, 2001 Neill Strauss's Picks SCOTT MILLER AND THE COMMONWEALTH: `THUS ALWAYS TO TYRANTS' : "Mr. Miller is this year's Ryan Adams, a talented singer-songwriter emerging from a cult band (the V-Roys) with an astonishingly good solo album (Sugar Hill). The only difference is that Mr. Adams weeps better, while Mr. Miller rocks better." ---------- "His first full-band solo CD heralds Miller's arrival as a great American singer-songwriter." - HOUSTON PRESS "Masterful storyteller." - PULSE "As frontman for his former outfit the V-Roys, Scott Miller was responsible for sophisticated bar-band rock & roll reminiscent of a southern Replacements, all the angst and the twang contained and filtered through a very precise sense of what a pop song should be. Having struck out on his own, Miller seems determined to do more of the same, his sensibilities that much more refined, the songs much more cleaned and polished." - --AUSTIN CHRONICLE
