"Much better than MC5 indeed, than the NY Dolls as well, and about as great as The Stooges at their peak. Some really dirty-ass proto-punk with furious guitar riffs, a flawless record, and it's only 25 minute long. Get on it." Reply

"I just don't understand how people have not acknowledged this album for all its dreamy, heavy, shoegazing beauty. Just a great outing by three superb musicians. Check out Subzero Fun, Turnstile Blues, Blanket, Sugarless" Reply
