PRAISE FOR THE PREVIOUS ALBUM:
“Concise, brutally to the point…a thrashier and more dense Killing Joke or a more metallic 90s era Ministry.” – TERRORIZER
“Building crackling conflagrations of doom and thrash that let not a chink of light in.” – UNCUT
“The attack is more akin to calculated drone strikes. Cruising more in the realm of Killing Joke and even early Metallica, Nations To Flames drops much of the dirge in favour of directness…in comes taut, thunderous and minimal blitzkriegs that project the same abjectly bleak worldview.” – METAL HAMMER
“Intense is an appropriate word throughout. From the rat-a-tat-tat machine gun snare hits of opener ‘Fall’ and its chaotic background burble of a clashing crowd, there’s a permanent atmosphere of
dystopia, the band positioning themselves amongst the chaos to pass judgement on a collapsing society. Close your eyes and all you’re likely to see is blazing buildings and a power struggle on the streets.” – THE LINE OF BEST FIT
