Press Reviews "Even confirmed blues-haters can be seen headbangin´ in front of the stage at their powerhouse live gigs. An impressively versatile and hard working harp player, he is one of the generation of heavy metal harmonica protagonists now emerging both in Europe and the USA who are trying to take the instrument into new spaces" (Easy Reeding, USA). "I can only assume that the band had fire extinguishers on hand just in case Rainer´s harps burst into flames during the recording of this cd" (Pat Missin about the bands debut in British Harmonica World 8/96).
