The Village Voice, September 25, 2002
"From the insensitive event name to the brutish sentiments of its participants, this massing of industro-electronic-noise commandos is the musical equivalent of getting gut-shot. All the acts in the three-day fest [Deutsch Nepal, Der Blutharsch, Con-Dom, Genocide Organ, and more] hail from Europe, and the bastardly attitudes on display-many of the groups play with fascist/terrorist imagery like feces-obsessed infants trapped in the Freudian anal stage-are a recidivistic return to industrial music's morally ambiguous roots, back when Genesis P-Orridge drank urine, SPK screened grotesque forensic films, and Whitehouse insulted everybody. And the music? Oppressive to no end, moving from dark-ambient rumbles to pulverizing power-noise and militant, Wagnerian orchestral marches." [Graham]
