"while sitting under a tree in a thunder storm, one knows what will happen if he stays there too long. while listening to this record i feel the thunder of the storm coming but i do nothing to avoid it. take this cd put it in and play it at maximum volume. while this cd is great it fails in comparison to the live experience of the thrones. i was lucky enough to see "them" live while a silent scared crowd watched in a combination of awe and fright. create that reaction with this cd. after buying it play it as offensivly loud as you can and watch your neighbors reactions."

"I cannot describe in words just how bad*ss this album is, and to try to do so would be an injustice to it. The entity that is 'Thrones' is not to be passed over, nor shall they be ignored if Thrones blesses your area with its presence, for that would be a mistake on your part. The times I have gotten a chance to see Thrones (not nearly often enough I might add) were memorable, and the only times I can say that I was assaulted and battered with sound(in a good way). They are not to be missed."

"Joe is by far the Master of Heaviness. He alone reigns supreme over the universe ruling it with his weapons of sonic destruction. Alraune is his vehicle. Not for mere mortals."

"The Thrones make the Earth move. Rumbling sub-sonic nightmares populate this disk. It's much like a demented movie soundtrack plowing through your grey matter. I would suggest turning it up very loud and annoying your neighbors. Small animals and children will run in fear. Mr. Preston continues amaze and astound on Alraune. Not for the weak of heart."
