In Your Face-Angst Ridden Madness

"Personally, I thought the production was a standout on this release. No instruments get buried, and the vocals come across well. Just a shouted out stream of pissed off energy. Some catchy guitar work and intricate drums in places, but this CD won't be remembered for that. Gotta take in the whole composition, man. Intelligent songwriting, reminiscent of Dead & Gone. They can grind it out too-trust me. Pace is breakneck pretty much throughout, and that's what these guys excel at. Enjoyed this release better than Backstabbers, Inc., actually. Production didn't impress me as much on K.M. as it did with this. I really get pumped listening to this-just wanna crack s**t up, ya know? Excellent CD. Not only do they have something to say, they express it in a very effective way. Can't really compare 'em to anyone, and that should impress. Why would you want to anyway?"
Digital Disc For Aural Deconstruction

"Barring three seconds of feedback, "Sleepwell Deconstructor" wastes no time in assaulting your eardrums with a wall of detuned guitars, distorted vocals and punishing blastbeats. The album barely gives you time to breath through the crushing and at times intricate riffs, politically and personally charged lyrics and lightning-fast drums on songs like "Garlic Breakfast", "Collapse And Marathon" and "[...] As Punk". The one brief respite is the Isis-like "Destructioneer Extraordinaire", which slows the pace but not the intensity. The production fits the songs like a glove...a spiked glove that is. This album is tight, loud, angry and highly recommended."
