"...AC/DC riffs with Darkness vocal and junky r'n'r sphere and energy of The Stooges. Production is trashy enough to enjoy it. Blakhiv is Darkness from hell. Great CD!! I definitely want to hear more from this band!"

"...pioneering hedonism and solipsism with reckless abandon... it doesn't take too accomplished of an individual to get drunk and toss around sleazy compliments to anyone of the opposite sex... “I Just Wanna Get Drunk with You†takes out the concept of Progress on a cheap date, knocks back pints with it, and then attempts to molest it on the car ride home..."
The Blakhiv "Any Way She Wants It" EP reviewed at Delusions of Adequacy

"...Blatantly inspired by sex and partying, the Blakhiv haven’t hesitated to allow their passions to seep into their music in all the right ways... The Blakhiv seem to let their music run wild at times, and while the songs are solidly intricate they also carry elements of spontaneity, sounding like wires are crossed and the thrust is crushing..."
