He’s come up with some good, melodic tunes, and is an excellent guitarist. My personal preference is when he heads further down the route of prog, as on the splendid ‘Merry Go Round’, but there is a lot here for the lover of classic guitar rock.Stewart Hamilton Zeitgeist,UK

AMAZING! FANTASTIC!SolMusic Management Inc. Canada
If this is the new sound of progressive rock, then it appears to be in a healthy state....very well structured, and very well written.... Musicianship is excellent, with some very tight drumming...nice keyboards, and guitars are that good I'm thinkng about buying one....very nice sounding, crisp clear and levels are excellent......yeah top marks guys.... Extra marks for the drummers job at the end.....
Review of "Analyse my dream" by hedprefekt 5/5 United Kingdom
I almost hate to write a gushing review with nothing negative to say but this band certainly deserves it. If there was anything to compare the sound of Johnny Engstrom to, it would most likely be an updated Rush. Love the fact that the prog elements are there but not overpowering, as some bands fall into the trap of showing off their musicianship at the cost of good songwriting.Review of "Human storm" by stratosfear 5/5 New York, United StatesJohnny Engstrom Band "From birth to chaos" (Blue Topaz)SKIVRECENSION Den uppenbarligen produktive Johny Engström - som är Karlskogas egna amerikanska gitarrist - har släppt sin andra platta på mindre än ett år tillsammans med sina vapendragare Niklas Högberg och Galle Johansson. Tretton spår innehåller albumet där de flesta av låtarna är rykande nya medan ett par är från killarnas gamla liv när bandet hette ”Dead End Street”. Resultatet som går under namnet ”From Birth to Chaos” är välgjort och välljudande. Trots att det har gått fort i svängarna mellan skivorna är det verkligen inget hastverk som bandet presenterar. Snarare känns skivan mycket genomarbetad. Detta är inte musik som tangerar några starka direkta känslor hos mig. Det är varken glädjens eller ilskans tongångar som väller emot en vid genomlyssnandet av ”From Birth to Chaos”. Snarare tilltalar den mina melankoliska, sökande och eftertänksamma sidor. Men det är vackert, mycket melodiskt och tillgängligt. Det rycker liksom till i hjärtenerven snarare än ger snabb energi. Och det kan vara nog så välbehövligt.KARINA JOHANSSON Nerikes Allehanda (2009-02-19)Det står tämligen snart klart för lyssnaren att Rush är en ledstjärna i närkingarnas musicerande. Gitarrackorden ekar över ljudbilden, basspelet är melodiöst och trummandet raffinerat. Fängslande blir det dock inte förrän baktakter från The police smyger in i låtarna och Engstrom, sångaren, slappnar av en smula. Engstrom, gitarristen, är dock säkerheten själv.Jukka paananen Sweden Rock Magazine
