Black Moth Super Rainbow http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC6aAs4kkbY
"Eating Us, the fourth album from the Pennsylvania synthedelic band, is arguably its most accessible yet: It tones down the mind-blowing distortion and plays up the group’s melodic sense and danceable rhythms." - The Onion

"On Eating Us, Black Moth Super Rainbow prove that they can grow up a little without growing boring, and still deliver exactly the same amount of unhealthy sweetness as before." - All Music Guide


Dan Friel (of Parts & Labor)
""The music he ends up with sounds like little else out there, a heaving mass of static beats, monolithic distortion, and bending, diving tones.. a unique and uncompromising sound that ultimately transcends its limitations." - Pitchfork

"Strange and wonderful, and best of all, unlike anything else we can think of."  - Time Out New York

Torche http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2qZw1-jAk0
"And Helmet’s inner-city noise-rock mixed with Tad’s backwoods psychedelia are undeniable. But Meanderthal is much more than the sum of their influences. Torche don’t juxtapose melody with atomic chords; the melodies themselves decimate, the intertwining harmonies are what boil your blood. This isn’t a seamless combination of genres, but a whole new beast built from the DNA up." - #1 Extreme Album of Year 2008, Decibel Magazine

"Torche's Meanderthal is definitely one of the best albums of the year. Accordingly, I listen to it more than I probably should (basically daily)." - Stereogum

"Musically, the group finds a comfortable middle ground between their speed trials and more turgid pace, allowing Steve Brooks' militant holler-- usually more reminiscent of Helmet's Page Hamilton-- to take on a melodic bent that could bring to mind anyone from Dave Grohl to Jawbox's J. Robbins." - 8.2 Pitchfork


Harvey Milk
"Most everything the band's ever done right-- from its ultra-dynamic, frighteningly agile early work to the Dixieland Motörhead maul of its later work-- falls into place here, the elements freshly recombined." - 8.6 BEST NEW MUSIC - Pitchfork


Nitroseed
