Artist description "From beautiful melody and harmonics to heavy bullheaded stomps filled with crunchy guitar and abrasive vocals, this band represent a unique pairing of drastically different ideas done right. Their talent and grace at merging extreme anger with a remorseful and calm tranquillity is something that has to be experienced to be believed."--thePRP.com, 3/10/01

Press Reviews "Mr.Downstairs have taken the perilous task of employing their talents and potential utilizing a formula of musical implementation that is not only rife with an overabundance of monotonous clones, but is also far from the graces of mainstream appeal. However, they have taken this familiar formula, reinvented it within their own vision, and unleashed a maelstrom of thought-provoking musical ingenuity rife with elegance and style, yet looming with a sonic apocalypse of power and destructiveness. A fusion of musical professionalism, honest passions, unchecked levels of intensity, and tight group cohesiveness and dynamics front the immense talents of the band Mr.Downstairs, who have merely begun the evolutionary process towards greatness."--Robert Thompson, Dynamicrock, 10/3/00.................. "Paying fine attention to both harmony and aggression, their material is intense and cathartic, filled with unexpected blistering throaty outbursts and spiraling verses which entangle the listener in their web like ambiance, yet still retain a somewhat new metal meets punk and hardcore demeanor that keeps the steam pumping during the more heated moments.... the great music and abundance of creative ideas the band have, plus the skill with which they are able execute them, make this release one of the better independent efforts to have been put out in recent years."--thePRP.com, 3/10/01
