"...fans of more modern, Melvins-weaned bands like Tombs and crust monsters Kylesa will dig lead-heavy atmospheric tracks like the instrumental 'From the Mouths,' and the deeply fucked-up 'Ice Castles,'... Now that this album has liquefied my eyeballs, they'll go down so much easier at the show." - High Times
"Tournament successfully marries the slow burn of Houdini-era Melvins with the swing of Drive Like Jehu."
- InvisibleOranges.com
"...loaded with absolutely awesome, hammering basslines and bursts of quirky riffing... They're really able to transition effortlessly from caustic, noisy textures and surging feedback to energetic rhythms alongside more restrained riffing that flirts with darker atmospheres... - Aversionline.com
