"... a driving heavy groove ... their music fluctuates between softer melodic parts and heavier assault riffs."
Music Outlook magazine, May 2000
"Crystal clear audibility, and all of the energy of the live performance"
Album Description
"Mr. Downstairs erupt with the fury of Snot and the lush harmonics of acts like Further and Shun on this release. Paying fine attention to both harmony and aggression, their material is intense and cathartic, filled with unexpected blistering throaty outbursts and spiraling verses which entangle the listener in their web like ambiance, yet still retain a somewhat new metal meets punk and hardcore demeanor that keeps the steam pumping during the more heated moments.... From beautiful melody and harmonics to heavy bullheaded stomps filled with crunchy guitar and abrasive vocals, this band represents a unique pairing of drastically different ideas done right. Their talent and grace at merging extreme anger with a remorseful and calm tranquility is something that has to be experienced to be believed." --wookubus, thePRP.com
