The Press Raves: The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me

 

 “This excellent Long Island band plies dense, angry tangles of guitar and opaque lyrics of spiritual crisis, a cross between Pink Floyd and Nirvana.”- NY Times

 

“The music contains subtle dynamic shifts, interlocking guitar parts and a sensitive rhythm section, and when the group rocks, it rocks with gusto.”- LA Times

 

“…a triumphant return.” – Rolling Stone

 

“… Radiohead-indebted bombast that begs to be played at lease-breaking volumes.” – SPIN

 

“This is a Christian album the way U2’s War is a Christian album: a passionate drama of doubt and faith set to an antsy, adrenalized beat” – Blender

 

“…strong melodies, solid musicianship, stylistic variety…”- Paste

 

“America finally gets their own Radiohead.” – Alternative Press
