"...I was quite surprised with the amount of cool and catchy riffs on this album. To be honest, I was expecting something way more morbid and dark. Fresh riffs complimented with just a hint of synthesized sound - not the slightest bit overwhelming - a rich, full, almost symphonic sound, breaking away from the almost conventional “epic” feel..."

"At first, the only words I could think of were words like, 'Why me?', 'How much longer?' and 'This can’t be happening to me!' Years of intensive therapy, straight out the window!"

"Orgazmatracks 4 is truly one kick-ass piece of party material. I was honoured enough to receive a promotional copy of this double disc “head-banger” boasting with more that 30 tracks, and DAMN! it rocks!"

"This is such a complex album. It's taken me close to two months just to crack it's code. This is Seether's 2nd full-length album, taking into consideration that Disclaimer II was, well… Disclaimer Version 2..."

"Today, exactly 6 months and 5 days ago, System of a Down hit us - square in the nuts - with Mezmerize, their forth full-length release. Even with my self-proclaimed “status” as one of their most loyal fans ever, the release of Hypnotise came as quite a pleasant surprise!"

"In a way, I’m almost too scared to review this album, mainly out of fear that I might not do it the justice that it deserves. Is it that good, you might be asking? Well, mere words cannot describe it…"

" 'Give credit where credit is due’, is a phrase that I strongly believe in. This album simply blew me away! Not only is it beautifully presented, superbly produced and laid out, but it also got rid of some of the stigmas surrounding South African music as a whole..."

"I had absolutely no idea what to expect when at first I heard of The Slashdogs, but in all honesty, these guys never disappointed me once throughout this entire album. It's pure, good old rock-n-roll all the way, with distinctive rhythm and blues influences and insane, almost anarchistic-punk style vocals..."

"In the end - what saved Woodstock Series 2 was the unbelievable amount of talent and originality some of our S.A. bands possess today. Even with tremendous pressure from the outside world, they have still managed to produce something uniquely 'South African'..."
