Get Out AZ said:"The reverb and feedback-soaked alt-country sounds on “Spider Lake,†the Wormwood Brothers debut CD, nearly replicate in sound the languid, dreamy hallucinations of an absinthe buzz"****Phoenix New Times wrote: "The latest truly stellar album I've gotten is by Wormwood Brothers, entitled Spider Lake. The band calls its music "dustcore," which is an appropriate description for this desert/country assemblage of depressing drinking songs. It's not what I'd call "y'all-ternative;" it sticks to traditional styles ranging from early Neil Young to modern purveyors of the sound like My Morning Jacket.
