“Taking lead from Profusion comes the debut of Venice’s premier progressive metal outfit. Despite a bit too familiar, ‘The Tallow Trade’ is produced by Ayreon’s Arjen Anthony Lucassen with guest appearances by Michael Romeo, Warrel Dane, and Luca Turilli. The strongest suit of the band however is their interpretations of philosophy, humanism, and political commentary. A band to watch.”

“Perhaps the most personal and conflictive record in a decade, there is a breadth of imagination and suburban commentary in these girls from Kansas. It reminds me when my parents would take me in the summer to Portland… <long winded tangent that never explains the record at all> …anyway, BNM.”

“A true avant-garde release as it mixes contemporary concepts and completely deconstructs them which sort of has become a standard for DMA as an independent music label.”
PITCHFORK

“Utterly batshit—goes from quiet piano bits to loud and erratic swirling noise amidst pop melodies and shrill screams. It’s as if Mariko Gotō collaborated with the likes of Jamie Stewart or Michael Gira. You can call it an egocentric display by the affluent founding members, or you can sit back and enjoy a challenging and provoking listening experience.”
