‘...free form one take instrumental rock, total power trio, improvised sonic lead guitars from the mind of Tabata.’
‘...Hints of MC5, Stooges, Funkadelic.’ ‘...Blistering oblivion guitars leads from Mitsuru,’
‘...totally unapologetically lo-fi, scuzz fuzz rock,
yet textured and nicely balanced under all the chaos and dirt.’
‘...phaser bass lines combined with the fury of layered lead guitars, makes for a head trip of a listen, to a great mid paced back beat.’
‘...Power Trio in full effect!.’
