    Although the songs on Speed Of Darkness have a heavy theme, this fifth album by the band is anything but sorrowful.

    It's another diverse and engaging album from a band proudly aging like a fine malt whiskey. [28 May 2011, p.51]

    The overly smooth production undercuts his righteous fury, suggesting the group harbors dreams of a Green Day-style commercial breakthrough.

    Frontman Dave King's vocal approach now presents itself as one of jaded disinterest, the defiant cries replaced by a sense of wistful reminiscence.

    Speed Of Darkness dishes up more of the same. [July 2011, p. 120]
