While there is nothing that immediately grabbed me when I first listened to this disc, I have to admit it definitely hooked me in with some unknown force and kept my interest throughout the whole album. This release is slightly reminiscent of :wumpscut: with a dancier edge to it, while the lyrics and vocals bring in a eerie, dark aspect to the music. Heavy techno influences and a constant driving beat permeate the whole album, which definitely makes for an enjoyable listen, even if, on the whole, it does not sound completely original. The definite stand-out track is Baby Tormentor' with its angelic and spacy noises in the background, potent subject matter (what we should really do to child abusers) and strong, bouncy pattern. And through the entire album there are some finely crafted and smooth rhythmic structures; the band is also smart enough to stay away from heavy doses of repetitiveness. (Kevin Congdon)
