    For all its blaring noise and sneering obnoxiousness, its probably ATR’s most accessible album; playing Reset feels like lighting a fuse and detonating something.

    The volume remains punishing, but this record triumphs in melodic subtlety, political nuance and conceptual clarity.

    Less the raised middle finger of old, this is more a clicking one, trying to snap you out of whatever Big Brother fug you may have settled for. [14 Feb 2015, p.54]

    Reset is an enjoyable 42 minutes of dystopian aphorism and boasts more dense textures and a keener ear for juxtaposition than its predecessor. It's a definite progression; just don't expect it to tear down the firewalls of GCHQ any time soon.

    Atari Teenage Riot have made this their most accessible album yet.

    As ever the brush strokes are broad and the confrontation is intense but it's good to know their fire is afar from undimmed. [Apr 2015, p.95]
