"The
outer fringe of progressive rock... Anything might happen at any
moment... If you chopped up some Zappa, some Stockhausen, and
some ELP with a lawn mower and spliced the tape segments together
at random, it would fit right in with XEN." - Keyboard Magazine
"Very
original, professional, recommended."
- Radio Central, Antwerp, Belgium.
"...the
ferocity of the playing and the forcefulness of the drum tracks
drives the music with a motor energy that only a handful of
classic prog bands ever achieved."
- Titus Levi, Keyboard
"...film
music that doesn't need a film."
- Organ
"...as
progressive as it gets."
- Doug Maynard
"...TOTALLY
unique and satisfying! ...takes you on a ride you won't SOON
forget...nor will you WANT to!"
- Improvisation Nation
"#1
album of 1995... not merely genius; it is a spiderlike straddler
of many different genre's and very possibly a keyboard fancier's
wet dream... Imagine feeding a cutup rubber ball to a penguin
the size of the Chrysler Building and receiving enthusiastic
applause from a plethora of assembled cement bags. And then
not accepting payment."
- Tone Clusters (NYC)
"...a
fascinating state-of-the-art aural masterpiece that is truly
musical beyond belief."
- Time and a Word (NYC)
"A
stunning release." - Music Uncovered
"...superbly
futuristic."
- Asterism (USA)
"This
is high brow music composed and played by two highly creative
musicians. XEN would be a welcome addition to your progressive
rock library." - Henry Schneider
"...it's
wonderful. Excellent work."
- Mike Keneally (Zappa/Steve Vai)
"...you
will come out of it washed out with a mashed brain. Entrancing,
delirious, frenzied!"
- Harmonie (France)
"...gales
of electronic laughing gas are interrupted by slices of whirlybird
rock rhythms and Zappa-esque synclavier jazz."
- I/E
"...inventive
and electrifying."
