.....the duo plays weighty epics and in an age of three-four-minute grab-and-go tunes in most bands arsenals......DC's hefty brawn requires that you give the band your full attention so that you can fully absorb how slot A fits neatly into slot W, then spirals back to match up with slot F and Q before everything lands squarely on the ground with a nerve shattering primal grunt.....Dead Commuter plays brainy but uncompromisingly visceral music and approaching it without an open mind (or the ability to comprehend its circuitious emotional journey) is not advised.." by Jedd Beaudoin -- Jan 12th, 2006 Wichita F5.
