Reviews:
"As overall songwriting goes, the group is as far from accented emo as it's possible to get -- they have far more in common, sonically speaking, with groups like the Young Gods, Killing Joke and Joy Division than with disaffected twenty-something WASPs. Don't even bother trying to listen to Millimetry Ticha at low volume; the volume knob is best set no lower than eight. You'll either listen with fists and jaw tightly clenched, or sing along in a joyful, wordless howl." (Splendid Magazine)

"First off it's rock music, really powerful and hard hitting. It could have been released by Amphetamine Reptile or Touch & Go as well. Bands like Girls Against Boys, Cop Shoot Cop, Helmet and Shellac come to mind." (Dance Of Days)

"Different than the usual shit. This unique sounding music has a 70s and early 80s new wave experimental feel that, thanks to a cohesive drive an memorably simple, solid song structure, is saved from regressing into boring pretentiousness. Unlike a lot of records of this sort, the guitar experimentalism works in part because the emphasis is on playing only what..s necessary and not on endlessly noodling all over the place. The result comes off sounding like a far more down to earth vision of what a Girls Against Boys is trying to achieve. The percussions and the rhythms remind me of The Ex with some Joy Division bass lines and darkness thrown in. The production is raw and up front keeping it from sliding into removed, ambient background noise. Good." (Maximum Rock n Roll)
