"Rozz Williams's final solo spoken word album is nothing short of absolute briliance. With the gifted keyboardist Paris, who creates most of the music ( beautiful piano pieces ) and at- the -time -roommate Ryan Gaumer at his side; Rozz creates a surreal, haunting articulate and often heartbreaking testament
of his heroin addiction and depression. A direction that I would have loved to have heard and seen more of had this musical icon
not chosen to silience himself. Exceptional, beautiful lyrics like his previous excellent spoken word album " Every King A Bastard Son " but not for the faint of heart or those who dare not sample the brutal harsh honesty of this man's works. But anyone who appreciates true original music, this is HIGHLY reccomended.R.I.P. Roger Alan Painter a.k.a Rozz WilliamsKaenan James"

Another disturbingly beautiful work from Rozz Williams.

"This second of purely spoken~word albums by the late Rozz Williams is more melodic but no less disturbing than his fist (Every King a Bastard Son). Written by Rozz and his former roommate/longtime collaberator Ryan Gaumer while they were both heavily addicted to heroin, this cd incorporates piano and violin, various effects, and even an old recording from obcene phone prankster Frank Lee, as well as Williams' ever lamenting voice. "Dec. 30, 1334" could be considered Rozz's suicide note to the world, "Best of the Breed" is an angry curse at that world, and "HER Only sIN" is a testimony of his disgust at the monster that herion addiction turned him into. This recording may seem a little too cryptic and personal for some, but as with Every King..., it's a must~have for those who desire more knowledge of the enigma known as Rozz Williams."

"There was nothing short of a man that combined decadence, beauty, the art of [I believe] industrial poetic punk 'if you will' and kept it alive only when he was. Even though he hated being classified on being "gothic" he was an artist before anything else, and his abilities in that shines through this spoken-worded album of his in pure beauty in decadence. I adore how this man thought, he could see doors that could be opened that were supposed to be locked, and windows that should be bolted shut. The way he puts his words into effect is a talent people to this day try to fulfill, yet fail miserably at. Rozz was the beginning to the end of real poetic statements in a very real and raw lyrical form. I LOVE YOU ROZZ WILLIAMS. [Roger Painter] Whores' Mouth is a breathe-taking effort from rozz. And one of my favorite albums he did next to Only Theatre Of Pain with the real Christian Death."
