What other people have said:
"...A flurry of short, furious tracks that crash 'n' bash through an assortment of densely mangled textures... In addition to your usual doses of hammer-on/pull-off riffs... They're hinting at a pretty mammoth low-end throb that really pays off well, and the vocals sound pretty f*ck!n' devastating as it is.... The songwriting boasts a great balance of grating, over the top acerbity and surging, tangible grooves that you can latch onto, and when you combine that with the fact that the tracks are so damn short, it keeps things moving and prevents the listen from becoming stale, and that's where a lot of comparable bands fail." -Aversionline
"...An onslaught of well-written melodic offbeats and breakdowns that are extremely catchy..." -Buzzgrinder
"This is fck!ng chaotic sh!t with punk-rock ethics behind it all" -Cobb
"If I was writing an article about this band.. I would write one sentence: 'This is what hardcore should sound like.'" -Blake of meandhimcallitus
