    It's the sound of three musicians playing to their strengths while challenging their songwriting style, resulting in a cohesive listen that holds your attention to the end. [Sep 2008, p.156]

    This is an incredibly abrasive album.... There's screaming on this album, lots of it...nay, way too much. [Summer 2008, p.102]
  3. If you take a chance on just one record then make sure it’s Take Me To The Sea as it’s possibly the underground triumph of the year.
