It was their last release as The Management.

Reception

Reviews

• "Climbing to New Lows—a catchy demo set from their undergrad days—will make anyone see what attracted the bigwigs at Columbia in the first place. With music and lyrics centered around innocence and sincerity..." – Andrea Domanick, Tiny Mix Tapes Reviews^[4]
