"Demoted are raw power and angst in the best possible way. I keep thinking of this record in the vein of a slightly more melodic My War-era Black Flag sound, and I hope that’s not too pigeonholing. And for the record, the closing track “Demoted” is the best angry punk rock song I’ve heard in a month of Sundays. All told, this is nifty little package that, once it sinks its fangs in you, will bring all your black-hearted anger and frustration burbling to the surface." — The Lord Kveldulfr, Razorcake
"Throws in some curveballs interesting enough to separate them from the rest of the basement hardcore pack." — Michael T. Fournier, Razorcake
