Sounds Like: "Spider Rockets are one of those groups that is easy to like, the musicianship is there, the songs are there and they aren't afraid to get out there and tour. You have to appreciate what the band has to offer." Torch, Rock and a Hard Place
“…we can’t pigeon-hole Spider Rockets as just another female fronted rock band. There are many that all sound alike. Not the case here… there’s touches of goth, hard rock, metal, punk and alternative. Will appeal to fans of Slunt, Lullacry, No Doubt, Soundgarden, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Velvet Revolver and many, many more. You’re going to have to give ‘em a listen for yourself if you don’t believe me.†John Haseltine, Metal Warrants
"…these cats know how to rock out, and they ignited the audience with a BANG! Their encore ended up being a stirring rendition of The Beatles' Helter Skelter, and I swear the entire tent was rocking out harder than ever." Horror Channel.com review of Chiller Theater show in East Rutherford, NJ
“[Spider Rockets] continue to crank out the crunchiest, catchiest, most melodic, mean-riffed and caustic metal noize since L7 and Seven Year Bitch gave way to the likes of Sleater-Kinney, Audioslave and Mecca Normal.†Al Muzer, The Aquarian Weekly
“I find them to be very refreshing and identifiable: one huge thing needed for today’s music scene.†Wayne Klinger, Quintessence Metal Webzine
"Helena Cos contains all the angst and passion of Alanis Morrisette, except delivers it 100 times better. This New Jersey band will hit you like a sucker punch to the face and leave you begging for more." Gothic Vixen
Type of Label: Indie
