Sounds Like:
"'Seven Years Bad Luck' is a rare combo of ultra tweaked samples, live drums and bass, distorted vocals and sometimes hyper politically charged intent that initially left me scratching my head before fumbling for the “play†button again... and again. It’s not often that a disc comes along (especially one from a genre of music I typically avoid) that leaves me as dumbfounded as this one has...this stuff sounds intriguingly and almost uncomfortably different."
--Chris Cooper, Smoky Mountain News, "In Review" 01/07/09.
