AllMusic Review by Tom Schulte
Like their zipper-showing namesakes, these reptiles
of dissonance are barking a lot, but one can see through their plans.
The first track, "Endo" offers periodic shell-bursts of unsettling
noise. This is the mere Cerebus at the Gates of Sleestak Hell. Much of
the rest of the recording has more to do with Kato Hideki
than Merzbow. Still, great fare for forcefully digressing from the
mundane word. Their publicist wants you to think they are "scary" and
their label passes it off as a contrived experiment sonic torture.
Actually, if you like noise rock, like me, you will find this
adventurous, compositional and heavily mixed with ambient cacophony.
