CMJ (2/12/01, p. 37) - "Machete death metal...more venomous and hotter than a Habanero pepper....Juan Brujo's growling political rants strike out against hate, racism and xenophobia."

Melody Maker (11/28/00, p. 52) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "Wonderfully demented thrash....this is south-of-the-border murderous noise, absolutely bereft of anything approaching accessibility....here's a record your parents will worry about you owning."

NME (12/9/00, p. 45) - 8 out of 10 - "They take a hyper-violent idea to its logical, bowel-churning and comically thrilling end." [1]
