Sounds Like: Press:"One of todays best unsigned bands!" -Volume Entertainment Magazine
"I have not seen a group this promising in a long time. They cover all the bases, from soft to hard, slow to fast in the blink of an eye. They were not excessively brutal, and throw in intense melodic riffs with excellent vocals from front man Tyler Lyon, especially when harmonized with bassist and backing vocalist Sean Hamel. The songwriting is beautifully arranged, these guys obviously have their act together." -Jeanie Moore, Heavy Frequency Magazine
"The Leo Project, a four-piece, was the event's smallest band, but it definitely packed the hardest punch." -Jason Harper, The Pitch
"The Leo Project rocked our balls off next. Singer Tyler Lyon plays an upside-down black Gibson SG left-handed and sings like a maniac. It¹s definitely mainstream, new-rock-influenced metal, but it sounds damn good and heavy." -The Pitch, 2006
