Sounds Like: “You want rock? The Joint Chiefs got rock!!â€
-Shawn Conner, Georgia Straight June 19, 2003 Local Discs
“We’re talking loud ‘n’ fast, pure adrenaline rock metal action, we’re talking a guy with a cordless flying V guitar jumping off the stage and shredding riffs to a girl with “Go Canucks†drawn on her forehead.â€
-Chad Fraser, Westender April 17, 2003 Gig Guy
“I didn’t think it would be possible to capture on disc the outrageous madness of The Joint Chiefs’ live show, with it’s literally in-your-face flying V guitar licks, but High & Mighty comes damn close.â€
-Shawn Conner, Georgia Straight June 19, 2003 Local Discs
“Old school thrash metal reminiscent of Anthrax, Old Metallica, Slayer with a bit of Nuclear Assult. Wicked thrash album.â€
-Stefan Nevatie, The Nerve February 2003
“The Joint Chiefs mix the riffs and speed of Kill ‘Em All with the relaxed production of Garage Days. 7 out of 10.â€
-Aaron Small, Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles August 2003 Brave Underground
