Press Reviews "On this song ("How the Otherside Lives"), man, you can hear the singer Ryan Farrell channelling the heroin-soaked voice of Layne Staley" -James Van Osdol Chicago radio Q101 "Their six-song demo is sure to please...Their solid musicians for this genre, offering nice bass lines, mimicked harmonies, and even a slow song to please the crowd." -Althea Legaspi Illinois Entertainer "Vocalist Ryan Farrell has a pleasantly raspy singing voice that suits the music the group plays very well. Guitarist Dirk Gatewood lays the drop-D sludge guitar on thick just like all the other rock bands out there, but does it well with a good tone. S&M obviously are skilled on their instruments...It is readily apparent that S&M is a good band with a lot of musical skill...this is a band that could do very well." -Mike O'Cull ChiagoGigs.com "Dirk Gatewood's guitar work is concise and chock full of quirky riffs with a killer tone that is heavy as hell that easily rides above the rock solid bottom end grooves laid out by Paris." -LocalLiveChicago.com
