"Featuring a rich guitar sound accented with just enough delicious mud and angry crunch to satisfy the stoners and sludge freaks, and the perfect amount of ‘blast’ to make the head-bangers happy. They also have an ass-kicking mix of traditional and growl vocals, and a strong rhythm section right in the pocket." — Michael Aronovitz, Metal Heads Forever Magazine
