Like peanut butter & jelly, Secret Abilities and Danger Button complement one another perfectly on this split album. Where Secret Abilities’ surf-y, Cramps-esque punk lurks in dark alleyways, Danger Button’s synth-happy pop punk shoots rainbow lasers as it flies through space, but they find commonality through clever and often humorous lyrics about love. For this album, both bands contributed two new songs as well as a cover of a previously released song by the other band, and it’s fun to see them take those songs and put their own spin on them. For example, the original version of “Sophie” is snappy and filled with ’80s pop-influenced synths, but Secret Abilities’ take on it is slow and sexy, featuring a creeping bass line and Tink Safeer’s brassy voice. Danger Button’s songwriting has one of its best moments in “Beautiful Boring”—about an awkward romance between a partier and a homebody—especially in the line “I won’t skinny-dip ’cause I don’t think that’s right.” - Kolbie Stonehocker @ City Weekly

In honor of their father, who passed away recently, brothers Davin and Parker Abegg and the bands they belong to (Secret Abilities and Danger Button, respectively) collaborated on the album "The Gat Doh-Git! Split"—named for a word he would say in place of curse words. Featuring six tracks, with each band contributing two original songs and a cover of a previously released song from the other band. The spooky rock & roll of Secret Abilities and the synth-pop style of Danger Button make for an interesting mashup; Secret Abilities frontwoman Tink Safeer, with her unique alto voice, is fantastic on a cover of Danger's Button's "Sophie." - City Weekly
