    The emperor has no clothes. All this band does is make noise. Any kid with a synthesizer can do this.

    What an effluvial pile of crap! This is not art, it is not music, it is what a monkey could create with his or her two hands on a minimoog and its posterior resting upon a fader. Utter drivel and not worth the time to even sample.

    A genuine sense of danger and trepidation stalks through these tracks. [#249, p.63]
  2. Every track is a pure battle, with searing bursts of abrasion chopping at lava flows of insane density.
  3. Take[s] their haunted-house shtick to frightening extremes.
