    Exister serves as a reminder that the thousands of bands aping this style of punk will never be as great as Hot Water Music.

    It's punk rock for the same fans who loved Hot Water Music years ago.

    Fewer songs here race and pulsate as before, but Chuck Ragan and co.'s gruff mix of grit and sweat remains in full effect. [May 2012, p.54]
