    Has the abrupt, spasmodic intensity of an epileptic seizure. [June 2003, p.94]
  2. Filter

    Bizarre and punkish and freakish and good. [#5, p.91]
  3. Mojo

    Despite being accessible like an electricity pylon, this trio of art-punk hysterics are as righteous as they are ridiculous. [Jul 2003, p.108]
  4. Spin
    67
    The Heat pay homage to punky Midwest weirdos from Devo to Brainiac over grimy fuzz bass. [May 2003, p.116]
  5. For all the sludge and fuzz on the album, Do Rabbits Wonder? never becomes muddy; the grit and gristle of Whirlwind Heat's abrasive repertoire of sounds remains clearly defined even at its most crazed.
  6. The result is indeed a whirlwind -- the kinetic rush of vintage punk minus the self-conscious nostalgia, the discipline of pop songcraft with, thankfully, no sugar added.
