“Indie’s Metal Monarchs; in less than thirty minutes of music, CHRYSALIS manages to push the boundaries of genre even more, with the song order arranged to be a perfect journey.” -MXDWN http://bit.ly/1jyeKPg
“A soundscape of brutal imagery and butchering guitar lines caressed by beautiful vocals and pounding rhythms that leave you breathless but diving in for more.” -Pittsburgh Music Magazine http://bit.ly/1co3ZxD
“This is not an album for kids who listen to metal. This is for the adults… Extremely complex, smart, and has twists and turns in every song.” -MusicUG http://bit.ly/LNy2UJ
“The production quality is flawless as the whole thing just sounds huge. There’s something here for everyone; some chugging heavy metal guitars and drums, some prog noodling and some electronic samples that sound rather fantastic.” -Metal Newz http://bit.ly/1dCyhsz
