Press Reviews "Stark, harsh and brutal are the only words that give weight to the sound of 16." - TERRORIZER MAGAZINE *** "Continually creating superior riffs, exciting hooks and production value (Alex Newport) will above what most underground bands deliver. This record sounds better that most of the major label records out there." - HITS MAGAZINE *** "If the one million boners who bought the new Metallica album in it's first week out would have bought this record instead. I'd have a lot more faith in my generation." - GRAND ROYAL MAGAZINE *** "16 are possessed, pushing the crowd completely the edge. 16 provide Osaka a show it will never forget, full of vigor and energy. 16 play with dynamics with sadistic glee most of their influences still have trouble juggling." - KERRANG *** "16 hits harder than Mike Tyson. Their barrage is a continuum of rock and roll fist to cuff assault that goes for the pin. Metal isn't dead, it just breathes different air." - YOUR FLESH *** "Gnashing start-stop riffs and rapid fire vocal attack 16 are definitely underrated and worth checking out" - ILL LITERATURE
