"For anyone who has ever wished that the suburbs be turned into a
post-apocalyptic industrial wasteland, the best we could do is to
offer its soundtrack, the music of super/heater. But more importantly, I once ran over a kid - a suburban kid! - at a crosswalk while "Lenny Briscoe"
was blaring through my overly complicated car stereo setup and it felt
great. It felt f@in' great." - Losingmyalex
"...On "Lenny Briscoe," the lengthier of the two tracks, super/heater definitely channel that early Neurosis vibe with buzzy distortion fueled bass rumbling over methodically simple drums and some ear-splitting discordant guitar work filling in the rest of the space..." - The Silent Ballet
"There aren't enough people doing good math rock anymore -- it seems as though the genre's heyday is gone. (...) Montreal's super/heater remember the glory days and they're technical as fuck to prove it." - http://exitfare.blogspot.com
"...seriously they are talented. They are a mix of Sonic Youth and TV on the Radio with a little bit of Deerhoof in there. I was surprised when I heard vocals live but not a bad surprised either. I liked the male vocalist and the random screaming... A Very talented band that's for sure. Their set had parts that sounded completley improvised, I love a band that can go off and just play and play well..." - http://www.myspace.com/ameara
"...Genre: Instrumetal sonicboomgaze - Play if you think that Sister Ray has too many words, if you think that the Friday Night Lights soundtrack was too boring..." - Lisa WSMC
"A post-rock power trio of just guitar, bass, and drums, super/heater is three musically mismatched kids who make long instrumental compositions. Alternating between creeping quiet passages and explosive bursts, they combine the gloomy soundscapes of Neurosis, the rhythmic manicness of Drive Like Jehu and Girls Against Boys and the melodic guitar virtuosity of Dinosaur Jr."
