  1. With Crimes, the Bloods have built the sturdiest bridge between the hardcore underground and indie-rock elitists. [Nov 2004, p.144]
  2. 91
    Savage punk rock that shifts and shakes like the bleachers during a homecoming orgy. [Jan 2005, p.98]
  3. But the use of the twin-pronged vocal attack as an instrument in its own right is never relied upon to be the sole weapon in Blood Brothers' arsenal. Intelligence is mirrored in the deployment of the music behind it.

    Well, I got this album about a week and a half ago, its all ive listened to, I am truely in love with this band. They are amazing. The lovley voice of the man screaming, sounding almost as if he were a woman is the best. I cant say there is a single song I dont like by them. The sadistic lyrics are wonderful. I love them....so much! Expand

    I like that it's different, but hate the vocals. My twin brother loves it and punishes me by playing this album constantly. Trust me- lots of music grows on me over time. This never has. Expand
