"As a band, COP PROBLEM constructs these raging songs that have giant towers of empathy in them that makes you really pay attention to where they are coming from." - Cvlt Nation
"...high octane D-beat laden hardcore topped off with politically charged lyrics and crust punk attitude... Cop Problem’s debut EP shows off the potential this band has. 8/10" - American Aftermath
"Cop Problem have created a tremendous first impression on their debut EP, delivering a fantastic three-song burst. 9.5/10" - Metal Assault
"Like a more coherent Converge, the Philly quartet makes a sonic - and presumably political - statement with these three cuts." - MetalSucks
"...if you're into crusty, d-beat-laden hardcore, they'll be a favorite for you." - Crustcake
"The issues that punk screamed about are still here, and they are staring you in the face my friend." - The Sleeping Shaman
