    The intense volume and solemn pace of the music is given extra weight and dimension by Scheidt's extraordinary vocal. [Oct 2014, p.61]
  2. Kerrang!

    This seventh record still offers plenty for those who want an aural assault. [30 Aug 2014, p.51]

    YOB’s latest record stands as one of their densest, so it's good that the band's greatest asset, their impeccable pacing, remains intact.
