    The album rocks hard and doesn't let up. However, the complicated melodies makes it somewhat taxing and almost forced sounding. I suspect it will appeal to the angry thinking-man or woman.

    [Hersh's] clamorous return to Electric Ladyland does little, though, except to cover some fair tunes with layers of cathartic thrashing. [11 Mar 2005, p.102]

    Rarely do records come around that are such a great mix of a physical adrenaline rush combined with intellectualism.
