"This album created a whole new genre : Decay Folk. The guitar sounds rotten. The whole atmosphere is damp and bleak. The songs are slowly decomposing and sound as creepy as the cover photo. Absolutely essential masterpiece."  Reply

"What an excellent heavy metal/doom metal album! Such an underrated band and they should have been so much bigger even in their own time. They leave that haunting Black Sabbath taste, but with better vocals. Sign of the Wolf and Relentless are the best tracks on here, but all are good."  Reply

"When you get a good few listens of these tunes, let them settle with you, see some of them played live a few times, you realise you still love the fanclub as much as you always have. Don't ever stop guys."  Reply

"Everybody should own a Pastels' album. Stephen Pastel is such a great front man. I remember travelling through to Paisley to see the Pastels. We were all so excited at the prospect. It was a great night. We all bought Pastels badges to wear."  Reply
