Hey guys, I saw you guys open for Earth Crisis. Great to see you guys after so many yrs. Last time I saw you guys live was when you guys opened up for Skin Lab. I must say Saturdays performance at the Corner was amazing. You guys blew Earth Crisis away easily

Waited over 8 years to see you guys live. Finally received my chance at the Hi-Fi in Brisbane. You guys are what got me into the heavier stuff. I really enjoyed the show and given the chance to throw in some brutal vocals was awesome.
