Scary yet compelling.

"mocket is yet another excellent band from olympia, with its newest record on the kill rock stars label. this record features just over half an hour of music that is simultaneously creepy, amazing, and disturbing. you don't know whether to dance or smash up something. words fail to adequately describe this album. if you like the need, you will like this album. if you like refreshing new music, you will like this album. give it a listen and let it take over your stereo."
Excellent moments, well-conceived.

"this (apparently) final release by mocket finds them steadily creeping more to the "b-52s on crack" sound of the need, who contribute heavily on this album, yet manages to remain separate through the instrumentation and style of audrey marrs and matt steinke. has some fine moments, a few songs that can be annoying, but overall a worthwhile listen. look out for: monitress, spot-for-best-vision, bone crusher, magic and ecstasy, and flyspeck."
