Reviews: nAM-sHUB oF eNKI - Destroy Everything. "Destroy everything is an adventurous album that goes a step further than you would expect of a breakcore recording. Truly crossing boundaries. Recommended to people who have had it with the conventional rules of dance music." from gothtronic.com.
Films, electronics, beats, feedback, samples, vocals, remixes; this album goes everywhere. The Nam Shub Of Enki delivers a dizzying array of sounds, and it does it in a way that works. Nam Shub gives himself the freedom to let music take him where he wants without restrictions while he gives his listeners the opportunity to joyfully get lost in the chaos. Richie Corelli - soundsect.com.

"A killer onslaught that does not let off, pow pow pow, bang. Give me more kiki/ill!" Tesselate Magazine review UK.
