"Giant Battle Monster plays that Frank Zappa-style punk rock all the kids are into, with the screaming and the counting. Except somehow they weren't shitty (...) Thrashy ADD noise proggers with amazing chops."
-Joe Mathlete 29-95.com
"If you plan on seeing Houston's Giant Battle Monster live . . . The psych-rock band, whose spacey, expansive jams bear a striking resemblance to the Mars Volta . . ."
-Craig Hlavaty Houston Press
"It's like a train with wheels made of razor blades speeding towards a baby that's tied to the tracks ... It could even be like 45 on the alternative charts..."
-John Wittenmyer Arlin Studios
"Why do I like Giant Battle Monster? Because their music is nuts. Imagine Godzilla on guitar, Gamara on bass, and Mothra on drums. Now picture their music crushing your city. They are one of the few bands that have made me forget to take pictures at a show because I was too wrapped up in the music. In less than a year they’ve played the Westheimer Block Party twice, two Recession Thursday shows at Numbers, multiple shows at Fitgerald’s and White Swan, they’ve played live on KTRU, appeared at VFWs, bowling alleys, parties, parks, recorded an E.P. and ended the year with a two week west coast tour. Did I mention they’ve accomplished all that in less then a year?"
Any update on the cost of the show Friday? I'd hate to show up with my crew, seeing you guys for the first time, and having to pay like... $27.46. I'd like to be prepared.

I'm sure you'd have a damn good chance if you guys applied to sxsw. O my band is Sabertooth Cavity. I have one of our songs on my playlist when you open my profile if you're down to check it out. Some say it's the locust covering king crimson, or somewhere around at the drive inn or some shit haha.. new song debut? is it going on the page soon?
god damn you guys!! i've been blaring your shit almost all day! I'm pretty fucking glad that there's another band out there that have some volta influence and some locust influences as well if i must say.. i thought we were the only ones. haha. I guess the scene just really sucks here. Are you guys gonna hit up SxSW? we're trying to get in. Hopefully that shit will go through.. but I think you guys got a huge chance! seriously! thanks for adding me guys i get so many bands adding me but most of them just suck alot of cock. Maybe we can set up some shows together in the future we're gonna head out on tour again pretty soon.
yeah? yeah? you know what Big Battle Monster? Cyclops is however I fucking define it, it can mean boring, it could mean fucked up, it could mean I fucked your mother last night, and it does! so take your own personal conditioned, dillusioned perspective of science fiction one eyed beings and shove it down someone else's throat! now if you'll excuse me I'm gunna bore myself in public, cuz I'm bored, I'm the chairman of the bored, I'm a lengthy monologue, livin like a log, I'm bored...
