"MEATJACK have the noise side of avant-cruelty honed to a fine point."
-Jello Biafra

"MEATJACK are a mess of hard-charging bass heavy, wall-of-noise mayhem. Pissed, throbbing music with bitter vocals that will make you sit up and take notice. Sick! Totally rad noize!!! Crushing! Sincere aggression...Mind bending aural assault."
-MAXIMUMROCKNROLL

"MEATJACK are an aurally assualtive band mixing anguished vocals, discordant guitars and other elements to create a wall of noise. It's a cacophonous mix that those with an ear for the calamitous and unusual should find of interest. Produced skillfully and noisily, their latest (release) is rife with dissonance, frustration and despair, and went by a little quicker than I expected-and that's always a good sign. I'll certainly be looking for their next release"
-Metal Maniacs

"MEATJACK veer between sudden halts, blood-curdling screams, slow grinds and molten white-hot guitar noise. It's all very unsettling. The chaos of the music goes hand in hand with a strange kind of clarity. The drums and bass savagely cut through the distorted mix and provide something clear to hook onto. This sort of music requires commitment in the listener, but it's potentially one of the most stirring genres around and MEATJACK have shown they can master its powerful savagery."
-Terrorizer

"MEATJACK are the finest practitioners of focused chaos operating in the world of heavy music today. Molten white noise careens between pure intensity and a dangerous abandon, creating a presence both strangely soothing and disturbing. Unlike most so-called "heavy" bands, they are not content to simply brutalize the listener with repetitive rhythms and plodding riffs. MEATJACK creates a truly dynamic, wide open yet claustrophobic atmosphere."
-Mindbender Press

"This my friends is metal. Beat it to an inch of its life as a child, then expose it to radioactivity. That's MEATJACK. This was easily one of the more cathartic shows I've witnessed in the last year. This is the soundtrack to blind, shaking rage, the bearing of the world's weight, the exultation in all that is lost. Highly recommended for those who wish to reign in hell rather than serve in heaven"
-Unbarred Magazine (England)

"Basically all you have to know is that when you put this in the CD player you need to sit back & accept the fact that you are in for the beating of your life. Heavy and devastating lurch-core with appropriately distorted vocals. Set apart from the pack, MEATJACK are powerful and animosity fueled...like listening to the birth of evil spawn"
-Short, Fast & Loud

"MEATJACK is an intense blast of harsh and heavy noisecore. An incredible mix of talent, diversity and sheer force when it comes to brutal music."
-Loudnet

"I remember hearing about this guy who got buried alive inside a wooden box. When they retrieved his dead corpse there were wooden splinters under his fingernails from trying to claw his way out. MEATJACK's "Trust" could very well have been the soundtrack to the guy's last few hours on (or in this case, in) earth. With songs like "Falling Down" and being on a label named At A Loss, I see a pattern here. I don't want to be around when the band finally snaps and the frustration, rage and discord captured in their music is released into the world. I can't help but feel "Trust" was the band's last ditch attempt for exoneration before climbing a bell tower and sniping passers-by before turning the gun on themselves."
-Ill Literature

"Esta musica es demencial con mucho brio."
-Suban El Volumen (Chile)

"If MEATJACK swings by your town please do yourself a favor and go and check them out. They go the extra mile to make their live show something really spectacular to see."
-Derek Hess

"MEATJACK are a collective cacophony of screamed rage and fast-as-jackrabbit fuck-all fury. This simmerin' (release) pummeled my fuckin' ears into a soggy pulp of pulsatin' nothingness!"
-Flipside

"Discordant and noisy, MEATJACK whacks the listener with a sledgehammer of sound."
-Rockpile

"Very lively atmosphere with psychotic guitar adding flavor"
-Doll (Japan)

"MEATJACK hunched, lurched and stomped through their material. It was as if they were the chosen house band of the apocalypse."
-Music Monthly (Baltimore, MD)

"Baltimore's apocalyptic noise mongers, MEATJACK are one huge, mind blowing experience. If you have never seen a MEATJACK show, then do so as soon as humanly possible...the most intense sonic mayhem I've ever witnessed."
-Lame Attempt (Bethlehem, PA)

"The band's tidal wave of sound easily overwhelmed the audience. The heavy sonic pummeling resulted in aural abuse."
-Blast Magazine (Tempe, AZ)

"MEATJACK lets loose the soundtrack to a terrifying nightmare of the most horrifying film of all time - A flick so horrific it has yet to be made."
-Scene Magazine (Washington, DC)

"A blinding mass of psychotic music...a battering experience."
-The Oregonian

"Over the top sound...physically draining themselves into their instruments."
-ICON (Iowa City, IA)

"Relentless assault of explosive drums and otherworldy guitar noise...psychotic angst avalanche...ferocious."
-City Paper (Baltimore)

"MEATJACK is one heavy duty experience...psychotic, nightmarish, aggressive and violent...circuit busting guitar work and blood curdling vocals...MEATJACK is going to blow your mind."
-ESP Magazine (Greensboro, NC)

"Oh man, this is one of those pleasantly unpleasant discs that just makes your skin crawl with its twisted intensity...detonations of hostile noise...MEATJACK know how to hit all the right buttons as they furrow for the raw nerve in your brain - and find it."
-Terrorizer

"Guess who got up on the wrong side of the bed!! Two chunks of anger and no chaser. Intense. The next time somebody breaks into your car, your boss fucks with you, or life just kicks you in the teeth, you might understand."
-Dame Leche (Baltimore, MD)

"Noisy...way heavy and way aggressive. They will blow roofs off of the disturbed."
-FOE (Bethlehem, PA)

"MEATJACK hammers the senses with their sonic fury."
-Creative Loafing

"Emotionally charged noisecore...Their soul bearing rawness must be experienced live! This is more real than music!"
-Struggle Zine (Baltimore, MD)

"MEATJACK is a twisted noise act...loud, chaotic and quite appealing...MEATJACK rants and raves and makes mincemeat out of their instruments...tumultuous...MEATJACK sounds like a glorious train wreck...you can imagine them burning and slashing away until nothing is left standing"
-Philadelphia Weekly

"Good luck dodging the shards of guitar and vocal shotgun blasts delivered by MEATJACK, as your footing will be compromised by the ground tremors generated by the band's rhythm section. MEATJACK will have you hiding under the bed."
