Sounds Like Up Magazine (nl):
The craftsmanship and melody that form the quality of the Antillectual live shows now finally have been recorded on the album “Testimony”. With this album the band is in no way inferior to likeminded bands like Rise Against, Strike Anywhere and Hot Water Music. The political punk with a raw edge is catchy and contagious. It makes you want to mosh and sing along. Punk has seldom sounded so inspired. An album for the year lists! I doubt the new Anti-Flag album will be a match for this album. 97/100

Heb jullie een tijdje geleden gezien op skatefest, en 'k moet zeggen: ik vond het goed! Ook de boodschap erachter is nice, het is is wat anders & beters als al dat "usual gezeik over de myspace"van vele andere bands.
Daarmee ook dat jullie stickers nu overal op mijn school hangen :D

Groeten,
Wies

Willem, thank you sooo much!!! and Yvo and Riekus and Pieter and Thomas, you are all great people.

flights home were fine, but on our drive upstate, someone smashed into chris's car and drove off... we waited on the side of the highway for a cop for 2 hours only to find out the car's liscense plate was "surrendered" and they will never catch him...

either way the tour was amazing, we miss you guys already!!!
