A very detailed Biography and Discography at:
Drop Out! - A 16 Discography
Influences: Life.
Sounds Like: L.A. punk-sludge legends. REVOLVER MAGAZINE
Continually creating superior riffs, exciting well above what most underground bands deliver. This record sounds better than most of the major label records out there. HITS MAGAZINE
Stark, harsh and brutal are the only words that give weight to the sound of 16. This slab rushes straight up from the street’s cracked concrete with enough ferocity to cave-in the most fortified foundations.
TERRORIZER MAGAZINE
If the one million boners who bought the new Metallica album in it’s first week out would have bought this instead, I’d have alot more faith in my generation.
GRAND ROYAL MAGAZINE
16 are possessed, pushing the crowd completely to the edge. 16 provide Osaka Japan a show it will never forget, full of vigor and energy. 16 play with dynamics and a sadistic glee most of their influences still have trouble juggling.
KERRANG MAGAZINE
16 hits harder than Mike Tyson. Their barrage is a continuum of rock and roll fist to cuff assault that goes for the pin. Metal isn’t dead, it just breathes different air.
YOUR FLESH
Gnashing start-stop riffs and rapid fire vocal attack, 16 are definetley worth checking out.
ILL LITERATURE
Viscious, rocking, perfect for those nights when you’ve had too much to smoke or drink.
CMJ
It took me only a couple of listens to understand why radio was jumping all over this. 16’s crunchy grinds move out like a disturbed, teeth-gnashing beast attacking anything that shows weakness or provides a challenge.
