Smalrus.com: “It’s now become quite evident that whether we like it or not, 3EB albums are going to be both kitschy 90’s pop-rock and 90’s politballads, completely throwing direction to the wind.”
Rating: 6/10

Weworemasks: “Despite a few shifty lyrics, there’s very little filler on the record. It’s hard to imagine that the rabid fanbase of the band will find themselves disappointed with Ursa Major, especially in a time when uninspired pop-rock bands are coming out of the woodwork.”
Those reviews are absolute rubbish. Its blatantly obvious that the music media just have something against 3eb and their awesome music. Definitely one of the best albums released in 2009, whether you want to admit it or not, the band members have talent. They actually write their own songs and record their own songs. How many popular artists today can you make those claims about?
The lead singer may not be the best in the world, but he doesn’t hide behind lip singing to make you believe he’s something he’s not.
This album deserves a rating of somewhere from 8 to 10.
But this album, give it a listen. It’s very good.
