Press Reviews "An apt title for this locomotive of a debut from GROUSER, atrio that has a self-proclaimed 600 pounds of love with evenmore horsepower. Conductor/guitarist Mike Wells punchestickets with a posthole digger, while engineer/bassist HookBooker keeps the train on track, all the while powered by theheat of fireman Noal Clark. These boys are not new to thescene, having played roles in such dramas as ILL and BurmaJam in previous incarnations, but this new project - with itsdistinctively Richmond meld of math-rock, metal, and punkrock- is bound to be a crowd pleaser, even among the mostjaded scenesters. Rightously so, because Harmonic FreightTrain not only has the power to move large objects, it alsohas enough hooks and melody to entertain those whopursue a more cerebral approach to songwriting. Catchthem at a bowling alley near you, or one of the few clubs left,but whatever you do, don't miss the train."-SWAMI SALAMI 9X magazine
