    Sirens is unlike anything produced under his other aliases The Bug, Techno Animal or Ice. It exists as a piece of sound art rather than a club record. ... Sirens is testament to the ability of sound and its manipulation to transcend language. [Jun 2019, p.60]

    Sirens comes out as one of the most beguiling and frightening works of domestic horror ever committed to record.

    This is a record which deserves your time and effort; it is not an easy listen and nor should it be. It is a dense and weighty work of art which examines the areas between life and death in which we shall all find ourselves. Kevin Richard Martin is making music about subject matters almost wilfully unconsidered by many due to the sheer terrors represented within their everyday realities. If you're human, then Sirens will resonate with you.

    Sirens is by far the most personal album Kevin Richard Martin has ever made.

    Sirens' darkness is matched by its delicacy.

    Sirens’ unrelenting nervous abstraction can be difficult to take over 14 songs, but perhaps that’s the point.

    Sirens may be the most acutely personal and deeply unnerving music Kevin Martin has ever made. [Jul 2019, p.30]
