Both versions are being pressed in Europe and bear artwork the MARK D's wife, Jennifer Deutrom.

"...a sublime slab of smoldering, cinematic fuzz-groove..." - Decibel Magazine

"...most coalesces the demon jazz and creeping intricacy that Deutrom has on offer... there's a cohesion in theme and a steadiness of atmosphere that speaks to Deutrom's mastery of the form." - The Obelisk

"This is a highly creative work, moving through a host of styles, using technology to great effect, and with great range and depth. 5/5" - Sea Of Tranquility

"Brief Sensuality and Western Violence explores music and the space between the notes, setting a specific mood and travelling through the vast expanse of storytelling through music... Occasionally, he utilizes complex time signatures to great advantage intentionally keeping you off-balance and somewhat unsettled." - Bloody Good Horror

"I could honestly listen to Deutrom's creamy powertones, crisp, jazzy lines and breathily expressive voice all bloody day, and, d'you know, I think I will. I'm pressing 'play' again and again..." - The Sleeping Shaman

"...it's carried off with a certain moxie, but also manages to be tasteful and non-invasive. This is an album which bridges a gap between the two disciplines, challenging listeners of both yet remaining accessible" - Metal Mouth.
